We Thought the War Was Over

This song is about the tragedy of ignoring history and allowing it to repeat itself again and again. Moreover, I aim to elude to the fact that there has been an ongoing war, which we are kept in the dark about. All of the major wars in these past centuries have be instigated by the same closed group of people by wielding their monetary muscles and discreet positions of power.

Nazi Germany

When I first wrote this song, I was guided by an understanding that the Nazis never lost, they just disappeared and slowly infiltrated our US government. I even portrayed the idea in my music video. However, I have since learned that that isn’t very accurate and their is much more to that whole story. I took that music video down. But it still remains that there is an on-going war, which I will write more about.

Album Track vs Single

The album version and single of this song are slightly different (though it may require a trained ear to notice the difference). I like the album version more, but currently the links to the left will take you to the single.

Lyrics

History repeats itself and we just put it on the shelf with blinders on
The politician’s favorite game always seems to stay the same
With blinders on

Defeat, brainwash, repeat, brainwash, repeat
Defeat, brainwash, repeat, repeat, repeat

We thought the war was over but it only started again
Then when we investigated we found it never ended
(repeat)
