[Teacher:] "Max is stable,
He's perfectly able to fit into school,
He just plays the fool.
He's looking or attention, did i forget to mention?
Give him his medication before his education."

[Parent:] "Max was draining, always complaining,
But he needs no supervision now he's watching television.
As each year grows, all his favourite shows,
They keep him out of trouble in his satellite bubble."

Wake me up, I've had enough, I've seen too much.
I don't want to fall away.
A speck on the globe drawn into the glow.

    This song is absolutely incredible! The instrumental at the beginning taking you through prebirth, birth, childhood and finally his position in school is breath-taking and just completely blows me away each time I hear it.

    and then it goes on to reveal how his teacher and parents ignore his individuality and introduce him to the world of truthogen and television to keep him from being so different. And then his rebutal... just incredible work! Such a brilliant album from a band I just couldn't bring myself to like until... TOTW
