This song is about the tragedy of ignoring history and allowing it to repeat itself again.
Lyrics:
History repeats itself and we just put it on the shelf with blinders on
The politician's favorite game always seems to stay the same with blinders on
Defeat, brainwash, repeat, brainwash, repeat
Defeat, brainwash, repeat, repeat, repeat
We thought the war was over but it only started again
Then when we investigated we found it never ended
(repeat)
Defeat, brainwash, repeat, brainwash, repeat
Defeat, brainwash, repeat, repeat, repeat
History repeats itself and we just put it on the shelf with blinders on
The politician's favorite game always seems to stay the same with blinders on
We thought the war was over but it only started again
Then when we investigated we found it never ended
(repeat)
