"***Fire Drill***" is a song made by Katrina Martinez. The song was released as the seventeenth track for her album "First day of Hell" on September 2nd, 2018.

**Background**

During 2015-2017 Katrina would record the song as shown in the leaked tracklist of the "K-12" version of First day of Hell.

**Theme**

The song focuses on the matter of fake friends, childhood bullies, and attention-seeking people. The song's lyrics "We're on the same side" and "Bullying / screwing around / with people they don't even really know" in the song seem to reflect how Timothy and the people online who accuse her are both assuming truths, leaving Melanie to respond that all accusations are false and the bullying should stop.

Story-wise, the song was originally meant to reflect Cry Baby's school journey and the ending of the "First day of Hell".

**Lyrics**

[Intro]
Uh, mm, mm, mm
Uh, uh, mm, mm, uh, uh

[Verse 1]
I've never fit into any category, always deemed an outcast
Since I was in Sunday school and all the cool kids said I was weird
It's exactly the same, they say:
"Why do you dress that way?"
"Why do you act that way?"
"Why aren't you just like me?"

So is that what you really wanna say to me?
You playin' games with me
Tellin' me you're for my kind, still you abandon me
Calling me words I'm not
Paintin' a picture that's false
You must not know my heart, but I know it isn't your fault
You live in a world in your clutch
You don't get out very much
Livin' in the fake world, full of facades and chaotic behavior
You pull the lever for fun
Yell "fire" then you just run

[Chorus]
Fire drill, what would happen if a nuke just hit?
Would you say bye to your family? Would you post about it?
Fire drill, if it all went up in flames one day
Would you give your mom a hug before your house burned away?
It kills, I wish the best for you
And you think I ignore you too, but
Really, I'm tryna live my own life
And be present more, and so should you, it's alright to

[Verse 2]
Crying inside
'Cause nothing I say ever comes out right
We're on the same side
If I'm honest with you, you just run and hide

I'm bad at public speaking
But I'm speaking now so hear me out (Shut up!)
I personally believe that everyone is fully capable
Of more than what they're doing, all of the bullying
All of the screwing around with people
They don't even really know, oh (Blah, blah, blah)
Eatin' a hate soufflé, and an angry bitter sorbet
All 'cause you were bored one day
Losing your wits and your grace

[Chorus]
Fire drill, what would happen if a nuke just hit?
Would you say bye to your family?
Would you post about it?
Fire drill, if it all went up in flames one day
Would you give your mom a hug before your house burned away?
It kills, I wish the best for you
And you think I ignore you too, but
Really, I'm tryna live my own life
And be present more, and so should you, it's alright to

[Bridge]
I am not the government
I am not the fucked up men
I am not a part of anything that is hateful
Love is seeping out my pores, I don't hold anger anymore
Even for people who hurt and betray me (Okay)
I am not the government
I am not the fucked up men (Gross)
I am not a part of anything that is hateful
Love is seeping out my pores, I don't hold anger anymore
Even for people who hurt and betray me

[Chorus]
Fire drill, what would happen if a nuke just hit?
Would you say bye to your family? Would you post about it?
Fire drill, if it all went up in flames one day
Would you give your mom a hug before your house burned away?
It kills, I wish the best for you
And you think I ignore you too, but
Really, I'm tryna live my own life
And be present more, and so should you, it's alright to

[Outro]

I'm getting out of here
