Football Field

Yellow skies and bright pink lights


Gussied up girls, and boys with lies


Green thumbs, green grass, and sad green eyes


The laughter was real, but not the good times


Friends, enemies, and families who try


To smile when the scoreboard makes them cry


Good times, bad times, stolen nights


Good kids, bad kids, violent crimes


The boys throw fits, but the girls still cheer


How the hell did we end up here?


I know it’s not, I know it’s not real


But still, I don’t want to ever go near


My school‘s football field
