{}=song lyrics.

"Screw you McGinnis! You're never around, you never call, you never have time

to go out, and you put that old fart before everyone else! We're through!" Dana Tan

screamed on the steps outside of school, and after throwing her drink in Terry's face, she

stormed off towards her car. "Bastard." She muttered. Farther down, Nelson walked up

next to her. "Since you and Terry are no longer a 'couple' what you say you and I go

out?" Nelson said, attempting a winning smile. "Fuck off Nelson, there's no way in hell I

would go out with you, even in your dreams." Dana said venomously. Suddenly Nelson

grabbed her arm tightly and swung her around to face him. "NOBODY refuses me when

I ask them out, NOBODY!" Nelson said evilly, grabbing her other arm. "Looks like I just

did." Dana said, and dropped him with a kick to the crotch powerful enough to make

nelson's balls to become inverted (if he even has any). [A/N: Ooh! BURN!] Dana walked

to her car and raced out of the parking lot. She angrily stabbed at a button on her stereo as

she drove, she needed noise, anything that wouldn't leave her alone with her thoughts.

{There were just too many times people have tried to look inside of me/

Wondering what I think of you and I protect you out of courtesy/

Too many times that I've held on when I needed to push away/

Afraid to say what was on my mind/

Afraid to say what I need to say/

Too many things that you say about me when I'm not around/

You think having the upper hand means you gotta keep putting me down/

But i've had too many stand-offs with you, its about as much as I can
stand/

So I'll wait until the upper hand is mine/}

"Huh?" Dana said, looking at her stereo in disbelief. It was if someone had
wrote this

specifically about her and Terry.

{One minute your on top/

The next your not, watch it drop/

Making your heart stop/

Just before you hit the floor/

One minute your on top/

The next your not, missed your shot/

Making your heart stop/

You think you've won/

And then it's all gone}

{So many people like me that put so much trust in all your lies/

So concerned of what you think, to just say what we feel inside/

So many people like me walk on eggshells all day long/

All I know is that all I want is to feel like i'm not stepped on/

There are so many things you say that make me feel you've cross the line/

What goes up will surely fall, and i'm counting down the time/

Cause i've had so many stand-offs with you, its about as much as I can
stand/

So i'm waiting until the upper hand is mine}

"Whoever wrote this song should get a Pulitzer." Dana said.

{One minute your on top/

The next your not, watch it drop/

Making your heart stop/

Just before you hit the floor/

One minute your on top/

The next your not, missed your shot/

Making your heart stop/

You think you've won/

And then it's all gone/

And then it's all gone/

And then it's all gone/

And then it's all gone/

Now it's all gone}

{I know i'll never trust a single thing you say/

You knew your lies would divide us but you lied anyway/

And all the lies have got you floating up above us all/

But what goes up is got to fall/}

{One minute your on top/

The next your not, watch it drop/

Making your heart stop/

Just before you hit the floor/

One minute your on top/

The next your not, missed your shot/

Making your heart stop/

You think you've won/

And then it's all gone/

And then it's all gone/

And then it's all gone/

And then it's all gone/

Now it's all gone}
