Lessons' Callmature
Sitting in this corridor could go on forever
I know it’s not good and I know it’s not clever
It’s obvious I’m setting myself up for a fall
As I ignore the pull of my dull lesson’s call
Whilst right over my head the threat gathers and looms
I listen to the hum from a hundred haunting rooms
They’re all sitting identically ordered in their rows
There’s an empty chair and then everybody knows
It’s so much easier when you’re in my position
To hide from the teachers and blag inquisition
And when I am suppressed in this shell of a schools’ hall
Waiting for the bell to draw an end to it all
The dust never settles and this feeling never goes
Deep in my gut I feel it twisting as it grows
So I’ll pick peeling paint off this dirty dented door
And expose what the rest of the school seems to ignore
