Try as you might it's all history
It's gone before you even begin 
Every little shade and nuance of language 
Every little act and every little deed 

It's happened before
It's happening now 
It'll happen again 
Can't stop it anyhow 

Try as you might it's all history 
The gift of hindsight means nothing to me
I can only see as far as the next uncertainty 

Don't get in my way, I've far too much to lose 
I haven't got the time for chit-chat with you
So keep your distance and keep your mind 
You can keep your watch and you can keep your time 

cnd when it all begins
When the centuries blur
You'll find me in the stars looking down 
We have to return to what it was before 
Make it clean and make it pure

There are people and world's waiting out there 
Who need to see it grow to claim their share 
Hanging on to our every choice
We have to get it right this time 
The need to survive doesn't justify the crime 
The need to survive doesn't justify the crime 

Is there any point
Is there any reason
Did anybody think we'd ever turn out like this 
Was it genetic or something that just happened 
Has time passed us by
Has time passed us by 

How can you tell me 
That you love the way things are 
When they've caused you so much suffering and pain 

How can you live like that 
On the edge of some great horror 
That comes to you when the world's asleep 
That comes to you when the world's asleep 

Don't you sometimes wish 
That time was your tool 
cnd to turn it back was your only life's desire 

c reversal of fortunes 
c reversal of time
Give us back our history
Give us back our lives 

They gave us the pyramids 
The wheel and the wall 
They gave us the plough 
The seed and the soil 
They gave us the tools and the knowledge 
They gave us the power and the will 
They gave us the arts and the sciences 
They gave us the source and the cure to all ills 

The waste and the greed 
Borne of man 
cs tragedies unfold 
Somewhere in the depths of time
Our story's being told
