History Man - Attrition

Twisted spires and falling fires

The day that I met you

And though we felt so tired

I don’t believe that we tried

To call it Waterloo

This is scarier man, it’s hysteria and

I need this, history man

I need this, history man

Screaming tyres and burning skies

Give me more than nine

You know I could be in danger, man

It’s strange what I really am

When you dig, you’ll find

This is serious, man, I am curious and

I need this, history man

I need this, history man

Took the Moskau train, got off half way

So hard, so hard to define

And maybe I mentioned it

But really, redemption is

Learning to march in time

This is fiction, it’s just history and

I need this, history man

I need this, history man

This is fiction, it’s just history and

Give me a dictionary

I need this, history man

I need this, history man

Nuremburg was a killer, remember

I need this, history man

I need this, history man

Passchendaele had a crazy baby
