History

I know that it happened, I know that story

But that was years and years ago

Still you're pushing and still you're claiming

The pound of flesh you say I owe

We've already paid for it

We've already strung for it

We've already died for it

Why can't you leave us alone?

There is no whitewash, there's no conspiracy

You're not a victim anymore

I know it's easy to be a loser

If you spill acid in your sores

We've already paid for it

We've already strung for it

We've already died for it

Why can't you leave us alone?

Bring in the hard men, bring in the armoury

If escalation's what you want

Everybody needs an enemy

But I don't want to be yours

We've already paid for it

We've already strung for it

We've already died for it

Why can't you leave us alone?
