American Aquarium History Repeats Itself Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Woke up today and they're tearing down
Another thing I love about this town
Little men in ill-fitting suits
Making the decisions for me and you
Tall and skinny, cheap and fast
Who gives a damn how long they'll last?
Get the money, get out of town
Be long gone before it all falls down

[Chorus]
I refuse to sit back idly
Mindlessly playing the cards we're dealt
I'd rather shoot for the moon and burn out brightly
Than sit around watching history repeat itself

[Verse 2]
Turn on the news and it breaks my heart
Another family being torn apart
How many times does it havе to
Happen to them beforе it happens to you? I refuse to believe this is who we are
And I won't sit back and watch it fall apart
You're either saying okay or absolutely not
You're either giving up or giving it all you got

[Chorus]
I refuse to sit back idly
Mindlessly playing the cards we're dealt
I'd rather shoot for the moon and burn out brightly
Than sit around watching history repeat itself

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I refuse to sit back idly
Mindlessly playing the cards we're dealt
I'd rather shoot for the moon and burn out brightly
Than sit around watching history repeat itself
