Educated mind was written by Steph in August 1997. This was the last song we wrote for THSTH, and the last one we wrote with Nick, before he left the band.
lyrics
Are you just like me, binded by authority?
The violence in the news today,
It makes me wanna say;
Fuck you and all your lies, you'll never realize
What makes the world turn,
Is what will make you burn!
If you wanna waste your life away,
Doing nothing right
And if you want to change the world,
Then you'd better do it now
An educated mind ain't no fucking suicide
So spare me your concern
About a country that you've never seen
One-sided frame of mind
And an attitude all filled with greed
Anxiety is building
While the middle-class is crushed
