History
I was feeling so modern
But you held me back
Half a century now history
Has got me out of whack
Was starting to blossom
About to crack
The mystery of history
Oh I blame you for that
(It underpins oh everything)
But please don't
Ask how did it come to this
Cause I'm
Pretending ignorance is bliss
(Yeah I wish)
I know you want my feelings cut in half
But give me a good reason to stay calm
I'm afraid you and me
Are doomed to history oh
And you could try to cheat
But you won't wipe it clean no
You won't
I've been feeling much better
But there's always a catch
Cause history is pissed at me
For treating my body bad
So run and hide
You're so good at that
But just think of me when history's
Stabbing you in the back
(It underpins oh everything)
But don't you dare
Ask how did it come to this
Just tell me everything I missed
(So I can forget this)
I know you want my feelings cut in half
But give me a good reason to stay calm
I'm afraid you and me
Are doomed to history oh
And you could try to cheat
But you won't wipe it clean no
You won't
I was feeling so modern
Was feeling so calm
Why does history make it so hard
And you held me back
But you've got my back
Oh that takes me back
Yeah we go way back
But you held me back
Half a century now history
Has got me out of whack
Was starting to blossom
About to crack
The mystery of history
Oh I blame you for that
(It underpins oh everything)
But please don't
Ask how did it come to this
Cause I'm
Pretending ignorance is bliss
(Yeah I wish)
I know you want my feelings cut in half
But give me a good reason to stay calm
I'm afraid you and me
Are doomed to history oh
And you could try to cheat
But you won't wipe it clean no
You won't
I've been feeling much better
But there's always a catch
Cause history is pissed at me
For treating my body bad
So run and hide
You're so good at that
But just think of me when history's
Stabbing you in the back
(It underpins oh everything)
But don't you dare
Ask how did it come to this
Just tell me everything I missed
(So I can forget this)
I know you want my feelings cut in half
But give me a good reason to stay calm
I'm afraid you and me
Are doomed to history oh
And you could try to cheat
But you won't wipe it clean no
You won't
I was feeling so modern
Was feeling so calm
Why does history make it so hard
And you held me back
But you've got my back
Oh that takes me back
Yeah we go way back
