Everybody laughin in my mind
I walked down the hallway, slowly. I glanced at all the faces around me, avoiding their stares.
Rumors spreadin about this other guy
"Dude, Gabi's got another boyfriend," my best friend, Chad, told me. I shook my head and walked off, up the stairs, onto the rooftop garden.
Do you do what you did when you did with me
does he love you the way I can
I stood in the middle of the garden, looking through the pictures of me and Gabi on my phone. I sighed and smiled sadly at the photos.
Did you forget all the plans that you made with me
Cause baby I didn't
I walked into the lunchroom, glaring at Gabriella and her new boyfriend, Brent. Stupid captain of the football team.
That should be me holdin your hand
Brent caught my eye and smirked, leaning over and grabbing Gabriella's hand, lacing their fingers together and kissing her hand, watching me the whole time. Gabriella's eyes met mine and she sent me an uncomfortable look, to which I just turned away, looking blankly at the table in front of me.
That should be me makin you laugh
Her contagious laugh filled the air and I couldn't help but smile and look over there.
That should be me this is so sad
"That should be me that should be me," I murmured to myself.
That should be me feelin' your kiss
My heart broke when he kissed her. I bit my lip, trying to look away, but I couldn't.
That should be me buyin you gifts
He handed her a locket and I sighed, standing up and shoving my chair back.
This is so wrong I can't go on
I walked out of the lunchroom angrily and leaned against the wall beside the doors, fighting back my tears. I slid down the wall, wrapping my arms around my knees.
Do you believe, that that should be me
That should be me
Yeah, said you needed a little time from my mistakes
I laid on my bed, throwing my plush basketball up and catching it… thinking of the mistakes I made with Gabi. Yes, I was wrong for what I did this summer, but I thought everything was good when we sang together.
I'ts funny how you used that time to have me replaced
I jumped slightly when Chad honked his horn outside. I got up and ran out there.
Did you think that I wouldn't see you out at the movies
I glared at him when he wrapped his arms around Gabriella in front of me in the movies. She was everywhere!
what you doin' to me?
your taking him where we used to go
Now if your trying to break my heart?
Its workin, cause you know
That should be me holdin your hand
That should be me makin you laugh
That should be me this is so sad
That should be me that should be me
That should be me feelin' your kiss
That should be me buyin you gifts
This is so wrong I can't go on
Do you believe, this should be me
At school, seeing her in the hallway alone, I lost it. I ran over to her and grabbed her hand, pulling her with me upstairs. She was confused when I stood against the railing on the rooftop. I took a deep breath and turned to her, looking into her chocolate brown eyes.
I need to know should i fight for love
Or disarm its getting harder to shield
This pain is my heart
"That should be me holdin your hand! That should be me makin you laugh! That should be me this is so sad! That should be me that should be me! That should be me feelin' your kiss! That should be me buyin you gifts! This is so wrong I can't go on, till you believe, that should be me!" I shouted at her. she smiled and her eyes shined with tears.
"I know Troy… I know," I smiled and leaned down, locking my lips with hers softly.
"It will always be you," she murmured against my lips.
