come sail away

It's hard to enjoy high school. It's hard because the C you have on your report card and the fact that everybody else is having sex except for you is terrifying, and it's difficult to see how petty these problems are without a window of time between you and them. Fear of loss dominates the scenery and no matter what direction you go there are road blocks and hidden traps and any of these could prevent you from ever having a worthwhile Future. And it sucks.
But let's forget about all that for a second. Let's just sit, listen to these songs about freedom, dream about summer, and try to forget about high school, even if it is for just 3 minutes and 40 seconds.
