History/Memory from Back by FS
A song about the unreliability of memory, the process by which historians determine how a historical event (most likely) actually happened and the tendency for history to repeat itself (at least the bigger patterns and cycles).
Musically this is more of an indie or pop punk song, inspired by Blink-182 and Plus 44, yet with a metalcore breakdown at the end.

Lyrics
We're always so sure about everything
Well, we shouldn't be
If we remembered things correctly
maybe we'd learn
History repeats itself
social movements come and go
revolution leads to a new state
leads to revolution
Collective memories are not history
It is more complicated
Experts argue but there is not just one
way it could have been
And in the end, psychology
is everything
copy and paste errors often
happen in the brain
History repeats itself
Destroy and rebuild
Memory downplays it
Good old days were never real

the occasional metalcore-, rap-, atmospheric electronica-, orchestral-, synth pop- or dubstep-song may pop up now and then, though.
FS is an amalgamation of many musical influences, since its creator is generally a huge fan of any type of music himself and can enjoy anything as long as it is melodic and harmonic and has at least some complexity to it.
