The Reluctant Graduate

It's Insanity 

I'm not ready
how could they think I was
I'm not ready for the world
to leave it all behind just cause

I'm not ready to move on
to tell all I love good bye
I'm not ready to graduate
will someone tell me why?

why does it have to end
especially so soon
I'm to young to be on my own
please tell me what to do

18 is not that old at all
to grow up and be an adult
to have a job and pay my bills
I know nothing of that stuff

please somebody help me
there has to be a way
school is all I've ever known
I won't be ready on graduation day
