History of man
[00:05.43] Tale as old as honey
[00:09.68] A moment everybody knows
[00:13.40] Yeah, I'm sure there was heartbreak
[00:17.44] Inside the walls of Jericho
[00:21.15] I couldn't believe it
[00:25.15] How you could just stop wanting me?
[00:28.86] You burnt down Easter Island
[00:36.08] As if it wasn't sacred, as if it wasn't sacred to me
[00:39.29] I've seen it, in the poems, in the sands
[00:43.57] I've pleaded, with the powers and their plans
[00:47.03] I tried to rewrite it but I can't
[00:51.00] It's the history, the history of man
[00:54.72] She stays up, he's sleeping like a lamb
[00:58.73] She begs him, he says he doesn't understand
[01:06.46] She loves him, more than anyone ever has in the history, the history of man
[01:11.54] It's the history of man (yep)
[01:16.59] You didn't even falter
[01:20.33] Didn't look back once, did you?
[01:25.39] So Samson blamed Delilah, but given half the chance I
[01:29.15] I would have made him weaker too
[01:32.88] Siren sounded, trumpets blaring
[01:37.12] You walked out oh, without sweating
[01:40.83] I've seen it, in the poems and the sands
[01:44.83] I've pleaded, with the powers and their plans
[01:48.81] I tried to rewrite it but I can't
[01:52.53] It's the history, the history of man
[01:56.26] She stays up, he's sleeping like a lamb
[01:59.71] She begs him, he says he doesn't understand
[02:03.74] She loves him, more than anyone ever has in the history (history)
[02:06.65] The history of man
[02:09.31] He stole our youth and promised heaven
[02:11.43] The men start wars yet Troy hates Helen
[02:14.64] Women's hearts are lethal weapons
[02:18.38] Did you hold mine and feel threatened?
[02:22.38] Hear my lyrics, taste my venom
[02:26.10] You are still my great obsession
[02:31.14] I've seen it, in the poems, in the sands
[02:34.86] I've pleaded, with the powers and their plans
[02:38.58] I tried to rewrite it but I can't
[02:42.82] It's the history (history), the history of man
[02:46.27] I stay up, you're sleeping like a lamb
[02:50.56] I beg you and you don't understand
[02:54.01] I hold on, I try to hold your hand
[02:57.74] I save you a seat, and then you say you wanna stand
[03:01.74] So you'll lose me, the best you'll ever have
[03:05.45] It's the history, the history of man
