Skull

Books written by liar hands
Die in mist of hurting ends
Tell the child, it's his own land
Then use him how just you intent

Plant the seed and watch it grow
Poison it then cut it off
Make it get used to feel low
Show them who is on the throne

Rule the teachers, rule the youth
Take their rights to say their truth
Drown their dreams, control their view
Who'll teach tomorrow? Me or you?

I learn from mistakes
Not from words you say
Whatever it will take
I won't let you fill my skull

You use me til I break
Teach me to be a slave
Circle made out of shame
I won't let you fill my skull
Even if you call it school

Cut my wings so I can't fly
Show the kids a way to lie
Label them and watch them try
To fit into the system's eye

Chain me, say it's for my goal
Suck me out til I have no soul
Make me a square out of a ball
So I'll obey under control

Rule the teachers, rule the youth
In darkness, seeds of change take root
Dumb me down, my heart stays true
Silence us, we'll still break through

I learn from mistakes
Not from words you say
Whatever it takes
I won't let you fill my skull

You'll use me til I break
Teach me to be a slave
A circle made out of shame
I won't let you fill my skull
Even if you call it school

Life is all fun until everyone chokes
Stars collapsing into black holes
They want no flesh, no blood, no souls
That's why we are turned into dolls

I'm taking back my power
C'mon pass me a lighter
It was my skull's desire
I'll set the school on fire

I made some mistakes
Learned lessons, no disgrace
Whatever it will take
No more poison to my skull

Can't use me til I break
I won't be a damn slave
Circle made out of shame
Now there's fire in my skull
Let's burn down your fucking school
