Boring History Shit Lyrics

Someone's gonna die tonight

Someone's paying the whole price

For something we don't understand

To them it's perfectly clear

Someone's fighting an invisible fight

Making the ultimate sacrifice

For a higher ideal

Giving them reason to live

We'll read about it later

Watch a tv special

Maybe there'll be a statue

Or a day off school

And kids will find it boring

As teachers pass out a worksheet

Yet one will be touched

With feelings so deep

When that darkness comes back again

That one will make the stand

And some lost part of our memory

Will make us stand with them

And a third are against it

Another third don't care

That's what history tells us

About how things get better
