Lyrics
History Defeats
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The bombs are falling through the sky
The king has spoken
All units move out to the east
To find a war that wasn't meant
One by one they fall
To a false enemy
No evidence to meet demands
The will is broken
Revenge is sweet without a crime
Keep them confused
Make them afraid
Fear is what we breed
So fuck conspiracy
Nobody is free
Welcome to the show you're about to learn another lesson
A shame to be American
Like a movie, a twisted plot come with no ending
Sympathy's not in the plan
Don't tell them they don't have the cards,
Bond job with purpose
Just give the message
What they want to see
Defeats stop insecurity
One must have a plate
And an appetite for blood
To be part of the feast
Step right up and see the liar give his best performance
In this theater called hell
We'll not be fooled, believe in anything they tell us
To benefit a commonwealth
History defeats itself
