Cover art for History Song lyrics by Good, the Bad and the Queen, The

Unbelievable, I'm the first. What's up with you people? Such a wonderful song. Comment! It has a lot of melancholy in it (damn, they even mention it!), just like the whole album, but there is some ray of hope evident from the very first lines ("come the day/you see the sun"). Looking back at the title one could think it asks to accept all the hardships as natural - it's been like that throughout the history of mankind, various wars (storm may be a metaphor for war), and they will always be from time to time. We must be those "hangers-on", strong and doing whatever we can to survive, waiting for it to end, because everything ends, one day.
