Название: History Will Teach Us Nothing
Исполнитель: Sting
Альбом: Nothing Like The Sun
Год: 1987
Язык: Английский

If we seek solace in the prisons of the distant past
Security in human systems we're told will always
always last
Emotions are the sail and blind faith is the mast
Without the breath of real freedom we're getting
nowhere fast
If God is dead and an actor plays his part
His words of fear will find a place in
your heart
Without the voice of reason every faith is its own
curse
Without freedom from the past things can only get
worse
Sooner or later just like the world first day
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away
Sooner or later just like the world first day
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away
History will teach us nothing
History will teach us nothing
Our written history is a catalogue of crime
The sordid and the powerful, the architects of time
The mother of invention, the oppression of the mild
The constant fear of scarcity, aggression as its child
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
Convince an enemy, convince him that he's wrong
Is to win a bloodless battle where victory is long
A simple act of faith
In reason over might
To blow up his children will only prove him right
History will teach us nothing
Sooner or later just like the world first day
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away
Sooner or later just like the world first day
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away
History will teach us nothing
History will teach us nothing
