In a huge stadium filled with excited students and proud parents
There sits an unenthusiastic girl next to other students

Maya
Maya
I never knew it was going to be this long
She looks to the far left of her
And sees so many parents
And becomes gloomy because her parents aren’t there
She looks down
And thinks to herself
Maya
Maya
