It looks like I understand it now
The important things here
Are the ones behind the skin
And everything else
Starts where my feet end
After a lot of time I learned
There are things that it's better not to learn
The school didn't teach me much
If it was up to those book, I would have never learned to:
Take the sky with my hands
To laugh and cry with what I sing to you
To sew my broken soul
To lose the fear to look like an idiot
And to put the cart before the horse
To sleep when you're not next to me
I'm glad I've always been a rascal
I learned all I know from a witch
Devastated, don't you see I'm devastated inside?
My cigarette is burning the time
Time that became ashes
Freak, I don't say “different” I say “freak”
I don't know if it's the world that is upside down
Or it's me who's face down
The school didn't teach me much
If it was up to those book, I would have never learned to:
Take the sky with my hands
To laugh and cry with what I sing to you
To sew my broken soul
To lose the fear to look like an idiot
And to put the cart before the horse
To sleep when you're not next to me
I'm glad I've always been a rascal
I learned all I know from a witch
