lyrics

Dear Miss Ryan, I've thought about this for so long, over and over, my anger still burns strong. I could say that you are the devil, but i don't want to stoop to you're level. Insults and such like you threw at me, but i sat and took them silently. This only seemed to enrage you further, as you forced me to include my mother. And then called me immature, one that stood out amongst others, while you and Mrs Fearon shouted over each other. You needn't have bothered. Because in the adult world we learn to control ourselves and take turns. Aparently unlike you that is something that i have learnt. You banned the whole of sixth form over night, claiming the common room is a privilege, not our right. We weren't allowed back in until I'd 'confessed my crime', the biggest injustice i knew at the time. You never had any evidence but you tried to make me pay. Because of you people think it was me to this day. Maybe I should never have stayed. Maybe that was the price to pay to keep my dignity intact, and not to be told how to act. But I did stay, and I guess experience is good because it's made me who i am today. I know that this is futile and i should say it to your face. But I am never going to see you again and I'm glad that's the case. You were never one for listening anyway. Another example of a power trip still relevant today. I've learned not to compramise on what you believe to be right. Through struggle and strife. Thanks for the lesson, have a nice life.
