about

ALTERNATIVE ROCK
Having been a teacher for 12 years, the one question that always hung around my neck was, what is wrong with our education system in that so many pupils feel alienated from school life. Quite often these were students who were full of life and vitality but were stifled by the system.

This song represents my true feelings on the subject and what we, as a society, should do about it.

lyrics

Sit down
draw a pattern
keep creating
satisfaction
now there's a light on
but its morning
how strange?
rearrange

Don't believe the lie you've been sold
the red pen is not true to your soul
so rejoice your mind it not old
don't regret or forget
The system's centuries old
just a factory to produce what we're told
i knew when blood's running cold
a battle in my head
still i regress

Struggling with more equations can this be
a path for the life, the present, the real me
Inspire don't rely on
the cold facts
re-read
Imagination of the young holds the key
lifting dead weights off your flowing wings then you'll see
life turns a light on
for everyone to be free

Wake up and see how it's been
The league tables ahead of your dreams
The child who sees stars in minds eye
clipped around the head, and told "you're not there"
When the truth is finally told
thousand lives of change will unfold
Now true meaning of life can be sold
No battles in their heads
Inner strength
comes progress
