Verse 1
Always forward
Never back

Except to learn

From the past

Haunting us
From beyond the grave

In the voices
That history

Couldn't save
Please don't make

Our mistakes
And live in so much hate

If only we knew
It was just not the way

Chorus
History lessons
Drilled into our heads

For good reasons
But how quick we forget

Into hate filled patterns
We always fall
While blaming one and all

Verse 2
Progress gaining
But celebration fleeting
As into past madness
Always falling
As the calling
Of our true nature
We are always answering
Solutions sustaining
To find
Are always failing
While the collective heads
Of the before fallen

Are at us forever shaking

Chorus
