But don't you know
Look how history unfolds
We're in a cycle of conflict
We live afraid of breaking the rules
It's too easy to obey, it's too hard to refuse
But don't you know
Look how history unfolds
We're in a cycle of conflict
And can't we see
We're damned to repeat
This cycle of conflict
We're at a breaking point, back against the wall
When will learn there's no point to these walls
We want to tear it down but nobody wants to fall
Stop the violence, the hate, the control
Break the cycles, new stories will be told
So let them fall
But hey, who will listen
Who wants to listen
It's too easy to ignore, makes it too easy to judge
I can tell you what is lost but I can't tell you what is missing
And I'm wishing that I could just paint a new picture
See visions of the next generation's history
So let them fall
But don't you know
Look how history unfolds
We're in a cycle of conflict
And can't we see
We're damned to repeat
This cycle of conflict
It's a cycle
It's a cycle
It's a cycle
It's a cycle of conflict
It's a cycle, it's a cycle
Stop the cycle
It's a cycle of conflict
Stop the cycle, stop
It's a cycle of conflict
