Significant Skills Songtext
von Crosscut

Oh how I hated the fret
Each morning out of the bed
Still yawning, walking to school
′Cause I was no teacher's pet
A rebel puberty slave
A little hard to control
I was a permanent punk
I was the scum and the junk
I was a toxic disease
I was no son of a geek
I was a permanent freak
At least they made me believe

And still I′ll bet I come out
So strictly out of this world
You'll think I've been out of my mind
Try first to stick to myself
Within your intellect shelf
The best of me made it through


You see me fighting for the way I am
′Cause I am more
You won′t see me lying down on the floor
'Cause I am more
I start a life

I did conform to their way
I did believe what they said
To just be (To just be) one of the best
But on the day that I left
I realized that I have
To only (To only) doubt at the rest
There′s more than school days to life
The real world is outside
Just try when you open the door
Don't ever let school bring you down
Don′t ever let them make you frown
Just don't forget that you′re more

And for me I still am
Living in part
To all the scum and the junk
That's still attending school
Just build your heart on yourself
Stop breaking out of that shell
And then your fate will explode


You see me fighting for the way I am
'Cause I am more
You won′t see me lying down on the floor
′Cause I am more
I start a life of my own

You see me fighting for the way I am
'Cause I am more
You won′t see me lying down on the floor
'Cause I am more

′Cause here I stand, here I am
'Cause here I am, ′cause here I am
I start a life of my own
