Analysis of Earbuds In



Earbuds in, the world is nicer.
the colors are brighter, the cold is icier.
While lying on my bed
Thinking about the world ahead,
or walking the hallways, skipping lighter
Music makes me act hyper.
It even makes me crave an all-nighter.
like a book, a thousand times read
Earbuds in
I put the volume up higher,
If I said I could hear you, I was a liar.
I sing out the lyrics, with dread
someone might come in, with shame I’d be dead.
The music blares brighter,
Earbuds in.
