When They Built The Schools Pt. II

Lyrics
Well I wonder, when they built the schools Did they realise they placed them directly adjacent From a park or a woods, somewhere the kids could go Get drunk, unknown, get fucked up? Get crazy, be safe to feel undone A shelter for the stoners, the fumbling first timers A house with no ceiling Like a feeling that's always following you Several steps behind Like a voice you keep inside you at all times Like when you know that there's no place to go So you can go there by yourself And see, if the woods are always there You can always go into the woods And say some kind of prayer To whatever God makes sense With whatever sacraments In a ritual of your own invention 'Cos when you grow up in a museum You live all types of different things Butterfly wings pinned to the walls And all the open ended questions All the love songs to the nameless Shamelessly enamoured With the brightness that you are When they built the schools Were they thinking about you? Were they thinking about you all the time? When they built the schools Were they thinking about you? Were they thinking about you all the time?
