Greg:
Dear Diary
I said I’d never write
But you’re the only one who knows
What happened here tonight
It started out just like I planned
But then it got way out of hand
And now I’m locked inside of here
For probably forever
And Dear Diary
I thought this was my year
For once I heard them call my name
For once I heard them cheer
Now how much further can I fall
I’m stuck behind a bathroom wall
So tell me, Diary
How’d I end up here?
I tried to make a great impression
But I only made a mess
I wanted everyone to like me
Now they like me even less
Even Rowley likes me less
Greg:
Yes, Diary
(Rowley:
Joshie says)
I failed at every scheme
(Joshie says follow your dreams)
I’ve only stayed alive at all
(But they worked at the seams)
With Rowley on my team
Both:
The only one who understood
Is gone away from before good
Greg:
And Dear Diary
(Rowley:
Joshie, I shared and shared)
Dear Diary
(Joshie, he never cared)
Dear Diary
(Joshie, I’m scared)
Both:
Hey, Middle School
You sold us all a lie
We’re way too young to handle things
And way too old to cry
’Cuz no one taught us how to deal
With all the feelings that we feel
And good things must come to an end
Greg:
Dear Diary
Dear Diary
Both:
I miss my friend
I miss my friend
