Has school destroyed your creativity and self-confidence? I'm working on a book called Recovering From School, to help you heal the damage caused.

The war is not over
byIt's that time of year again
To take your books
Go back to hell
They say you're learning, that's a lie
We did it last year
It didn't take us anywhere
Through the ninth circle
Just do it all again
Back in that same place
No, not learning any more
This time it's diferrent
This time, a ten-month war...
They have us come over
To do it all over
They said it was over
But it's never over....
Don't look ahead yet
So many years to go
It's best to leave now
They make us stay here anyway
I could have left now
So many years ago
They make us stay now
Same teachers same dumb lies
We couldn't move on
This year just like the last
They leave us trapped here
And first we're asking for how long
They have us come over
To do it all over
They said it was over
But it's never over....
Every year at this time
It's been just the same again
take books, get lied to
They say it's for our own good
The same shit each year
It doesn't take us anywhere
Yet they enslave us
Like it's the only way
Through the same cycle
Each ring burns at our minds
They call us crazy
That's what the system does
They have us come over
To do it all over
They said it was over
But it's never over....

HOW IS THAT FUCKING FAIR?!?!?!?! |
