If I don't like the views you're putting forward
Then I won't listen, I won't care about it
We don't have to agree 'cause we're ignorant
And if what you're saying starts to make me sick
Then I'll take it no further
Facts & figures may help me now
But in the future that's not what life's all about
When I'm gone do you think you'll see me
The place I'm from is ruined & I'm leaving
I can't wait 'till next year which I'll enjoy
'Cause I won't be doing things that I don't need
Years move on fast & now they're gone
They always do from what I've seen
We're always moving on
Facts & figures may help me now
But in the future that's not what life's all about
When I'm gone do you think you'll see me
The place I'm from is ruined & I'm leaving
Someone new brought in just as I leave
Glad I'm gone 'cause he's running the place
Many changes are great & you can see
But really not when you're making it a disgrace
I'm not staying one more day
Achievement for all
You forget there's more
Than just grades & good
This is our childhood
Facts & figures may help me now
But in the future that's not what life's all about
When I'm gone do you think you'll see me
The place I'm from is ruined & I'm leaving
Learning hard quotes off by heart
The time & effort is tearing me apart
Knowing rules for games but no qualification
Who cares about your expectations
Maybe it's part of all lives
Those 5 years have you wasted your time
'Cause when it's gone & you can't go back
My times been spent well & that's a fact
Facts & figures may help me now
But in the future that's not what life's all about
When I'm gone do you think you'll see me
The place I'm from is ruined & I'm leaving
