Текст песни Signed on for a Sequel - Aviators

I begged
The world to heal its scars again
As I cried into oblivion
And the victims passed me by
I said
The curse has kept us spiraling
While the desperate keep on rioting
And the greedy plea with lies
One more summer
And yet another
While the more things change they stay the same
Apathetic inaction
Is gaining traction
When the lost don't play they lose the game
Don't fade out, we'll go off script
The last scene's behind our silent lips
We're signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act
Seen the first act
Of a hundred stories just like yours
Through the history of an endless war
They've come back
Signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act
Seen the first act before
And I wept
For the future of humanity
To be free of this insanity
Where the lessons learned repeat
I sent
A message to the least of us
That the greedy are carnivorous
And that hatred fears defeat
One more summer
And yet another
While the more things change they stay the same
Apathetic inaction
Is gaining traction
When the lost don't play they lose the game
Don't fade out, we'll go off script
The last scene's behind our silent lips
We're signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act
Seen the first act
Of a hundred stories just like yours
Through the history of an endless war
They've come back
Signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act
Seen the first act before
And our eyes consume the world today
Just as if the past has been erased
So don't run away, don't run away from time
There's a cycle of our symmetry
As a sign that history will repeat
So start looking back, start looking back to find
All the tragedies we've tried to mend
All the selfish acts with violent ends
We don't learn a thing from conflict
So it finds us once again
Don't fade out, we'll go off script
The last scene's behind our silent lips
We're signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act
Seen the first act
Of a hundred stories just like yours
Through the history of an endless war
They've come back
Signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act
Seen the first act before
