[lily]
what could i say if it turns out i failed?
what should you do when the water you’ve bailed
comes rushing back in
you know you can’t win

[students]
you’re drowning
you’re drowning
you’re drowning
you’re drowning

[lily]
better learn how to swim

hey, welcome to high school
welcome to my school
where you must excel at everything
think i’m being dramatic?
it’s just simple mathematics
we can’t all be winners

we’re your future phds
but the future’s where i’d rather be
’cause the prеsent’s all antic-p-tion anxiety
[alexis (spoken)]
hey, sis! how’d this morning go?

[lily (spoken)]
i can’t do this. i’m going to fail, i’m going to fall bеlow the average
i can’t spend the rest of my life…
like that

[alexis (spoken)]
it’s going to be fine. i’m sure this morning was fine, and i’m sure this afternoon will be fine. you’ve been working hard – – just – – chill. you’re starting to stress me out

[lily (spoken)]
i’m sorry, it’s just…

[alexis (spoken)]
remember what mom says –

[lily (sung)]
just breathe, you’ll be fine

[alexis]
that’s right!

[lily]
it’s not really helping
[alexis]
just breathe, you’ll be fine

[students]
ahhh…

[ryan (spoken)]
hey, lex!

[alexis (spoken)]
hey, babe!

[lily (spoken)]
hi, ryan!
or not…

[ryan (spoken)]
what’s going on?

[alexis (spoken)]
oh – lily is just stressing over her midterms. she thinks she’ll fall below the average

[ryan (spoken)]
classic lily. it’s so easy, just

(sung)
put one foot in front of the other
do what you’ve been told

[alexis]
take another breath

[ryan]
you’ve still got time

[alexis]
just pull through!

[lily (spoken)]
i’m trying!

[students (sung)]
you’re drowning
you’re drowning
you’re drowning
you’re drowning
you’re drowning…

[lily]
when does this feeling go away?
this tightness in my chest?
when will i see through all this gray?
why am i always second best?
and, god, what will my mother say
if i fail another test?
has it always been this way?
can you tell me something different isn’t better?

[megan (spoken)]
hey – did you study for calc?

[josh (spoken)]
what’s the point, even if i get an a on the midterm, i’m still at risk. i might as well start preparing for rank redemption now – –

[carly (spoken)]
ew. gross. close your mouth

[jacquie (spoken)]
they must be staring at how smart we look

[francis (spoken)]
are people born below the average? or do they have “the averageness” thrust upon them?

[sydney (sung)]
hey, welcome to high school
welcome to my school

[jacquie]
not quite yet

[sydney]
you’ll see how far i get
this whole school is our kingdom

[carly (spoken)]
what do you mean?

[sydney (sung)]
hey, don’t be dumb
cream rises to the top

[francis]
trust me, we are set

[sydney]
just watch them circle ’round the drain
hear them whining and complaining:
(spoken)

“school’s so hard!” well, work harder!

(sung)

that’s how you make your name!

[squad]
ahhh…

[sydney]
imagine you
imagine me

[squad]
what do you see?

[sydney]
by the end of today
we’ll secure our place at the top
and that’s where we’ll stay
you know what they say

[sydney & squad]
“can’t stop, won’t stop!”
and when life bites, we bite back hard
we learn to fight, we keep our guard
so by the end of today

[sydney (spoken)]
let’s go. midterms don’t wait!

[john (sung)]
how d’ya feel ’bout that test?

[jordan]
i for sure got an “f”

[john (spoken)]
seriously?

[jordan (spoken)]
nope! but i “tried my best!”
look at all of them! it’s pathetic! better hurry, don’t miss your big test!

[john (spoken)]
okay, okay, leave them alone. let’s go

[students (sung)]
study and study and study some more

[jayden (spoken)]
how many students are going to be at risk this semester?

[mason (spoken)]
stop thinking about it

[erica (spoken)]
it’s going to be fine

[students (sung)]
study and study and study some more

[sarah (spoken)]
is rank redemption really in front of everyone?

[grace (spoken)]
ugh. that would literally be the worst

[students (sung)]
study and study and study some more
god, what is it for?
when does this feeling go away?
this tightness in my chest?
when will i see through all this gray?
why am i always second best?
and, god, what will my parents say
if i fail another test?
has it always been this way?
can you tell me something different isn’t better?

[alexis]
just breathe, you’ll be fine

[students]
just breathe…

[lily]
what could i say if it turns out i failed?

[students]
ah…

[sydney & squad]
by the end of today!

[students]
breathe…

[alexis & ryan]
just breathe

[students]
ah…

[alexis & ryan]
you’ll be fine

[sydney & squad]
by the end of today

[lily]
life keeps rolling forward
spinning faster, back and forth
a roller coaster, upside down like this
over and over again
next thing i know, i’m falling
and there’s no one calling in the backup
cause who the h-ll would stand up?

[alexis]
just breathe!

[students}
you’re drowning

[ryan (spoken)]
lex – relax. lily is going to be fine

[alexis (spoken)]
even if she passes her last midterm…

[ryan (spoken)]
rank redemption doesn’t mean – you worry too much

[students (sung)]
when does this feeling go away?

[ryan (spoken)]
it’s just another midterm

[students (sung)]
you’re drowning

[alexis (spoken)]
you can’t just expect everything to work out, ryan…

[students (sung)]
when will i see through all this gray?

[lily (spoken)]
lex – i think i’m just going to go home sick

[alexis (spoken)]
hang on – i –
what? no, you aren’t, lily – stop it

[students (sung)]
now take another test

[ryan (spoken)]
can we talk later? i wanted to – –

[sydney (spoken)]
ryan! didn’t you tell mom and dad she wasn’t a distraction! the bell is about to ring and you’re out here wasting time

[ryan (spoken)]
i – – we’ll talk later? okay? good luck

[students (sung)]
you’re drowning
you’re drowning
you’re drowning

[ryan (spoken)]
love you

[alexis (spoken)]

[ryan (spoken)]

[jacquie (sung)]
by the end of today…

[francis]
by the end of today…

[carly]
by the end of today…

[sydney]
by the end of today

[students]
by the end of today

[alexis & lily]

[students]

[alexis & lily]

[squad]
by the end of today
by the end of today

[students]
hey, welcome to high school. today!

[all]
