Cruel Circumstances

Chin up girl
You've dealt with much worse than this
Ignorance is total bliss
So pretend that they aren't there
I promise, you'll be okay
Be polite, mind your manners
If spoken to, speak back
Nothing more, nothing less
Let drama erupt nowhere near you
Protect your sanity
Ignore all vanity
These people are free to do as they please
Remember it doesn't concern thee
This world is broken, outside of these four walls
And out there, do your best to better it all
But here...let bygons be as they may
And where they fall they shall lay
Be blind to those around
When walking, keep your head down
Be calm, be gentle, feel peace
Even though you're uneasy, force ease
Focus on making it out of this hell
And staying alive to tell the tale
Because this is a game of misery
For here at beauty school, there's seldom beauty
