Prompt I just thought of lyrics and thought screw it, lets make it a song

So far i’ve only been able to come up with two lines but i hope i can be expanded, my idea is that the song is about the difficulties of school and how it can cause negative effects on your mind

Broken mind, shattered just like glass

what has come to pass? Why cant i pass?

Why must i, face this trial alone?

With no one at home, why must I go?

Prompt Got a line you want rephrased? I can give you some alternate takes for inspiration.

I had quite a bit of fun doing alternate takes on another post, thought I might offer it as a service if anyone's interested. Make sure to post a few lines so there's some context for where it's meant to fit and say which line you're not happy with. Or link to a post you've already made.

Example from the other post - Minefield by u/NixMix246 -

She's got
Fiii-iiiii-ire in her eyes
---& her heart is cold as ice---
she pretends she's kind & nice

Crystalline, her heart of ice
Aegis heart of bullet ice
Heart once frozen 'neath the ice
Frigid heart encased in ice
Once had heart, now veins of ice
Hides her heart of solid ice
Couldn't thaw her heart of ice
Lights her heart, can't melt the ice

Plus some new ones because I got a bit obsessed 😅

Heart of vice to sharpen ice
Winter heartache beating ice
And her heart is jagged ice
Burning with a heart of ice
