Overload

My mind's asleep
but I'm awake
Can't comprehend
what is thrown to me
But I understand
and don't stop to cry
I'm over my head
and should get a fifth year to try

Don't want to fail
don't want to stay
Homework galore
they give as they may
As I work real hard
to catch up a few days
I'm three chapters back
and I'm not alone
Because they think
that at twelve I go home

I could handle them
one on their own
this is too much
for all in one
The tables have turned
they've pushed me away
Now all I do
is sleep all day

Well, actually I was a senior when I wrote this, I was in a calculus class with an awful teacher, and after school I went to work, so by the time I got home I didn't want to touch any school books ;}

I ended up dropping that class, as I didn't need it anyway.
