Welcome To Our New War Lyrics


We fall to our knees raise our hands toward the sky
Bow to the powerful without asking why
We fill our glass with false sense of pride
The ruling class has forced us all to demand what they supply
So welcome to our new war
The rich sell their lies to the poor
We’re dying but we don’t know what for
So welcome to our new war
In a troubled time, in an age of fear
We place our trust in the insincere
As the waiting mind are misinformed
The ones in charge are just adding to the score
Well, the war profiteers watch as their numbers rise
Their private contracts push profits through the sky
The rest will struggle just to survive
While special interest goes to those with the highest dollar sign
The highest dollar sign, yeah
So welcome to our new war

The rich sell their lies to the poor
We’re dying but we don’t know what for
So welcome to our new war
So welcome to our new war
Welcome to our new war
This is the price that we pay for living with our eyes closed
And backs against the wall at the top of the hill
Where the powerful thrive
There’s a strong disregard for this human life
When the winds start to change and the meek crowd the floor
And the sirens will sound and at last they will scream
No more, last they will scream no more
No more, no more, no more, no more, no
The power elite wears the thickest disguise
Setting the rules as the classes divide
They keep their heartless eyes on the prize
Then leave the masses with a lifetime of poverty and crime
So welcome to our new war
The rich sell their lies to the poor
We’re dying but we don’t know what for
So welcome to our new war
So welcome to our new war
The rich sell their lies to the poor
We’re dying but we don’t know what for
So welcome to our new war
To our new war, war

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Story of the Year is a post-hardcore band from St. Louis, Missouri originally formed in 1995.

The band currently consists of vocalist Dan Marsala, lead guitarist Ryan Phillips, rhythm guitarist and back up vocalist Philip Sneed, bassist Adam Russell and drummer Josh Wills. Initially named Big Blue Monkey, they changed their name to Story of the Year in 2002 because a blues group of the same name had already existed.

It would not be until eight years after forming that Story of the Year saw its first piece of commercial success in its major label debut, Page Avenue, containing the popular singles "Until the Day I Die" and "Anthem of Our Dying Day". A second album, In the Wake of Determination, followed in 2005, but did not achieve the success of its predecessor. The band has returned with their third album The Black Swan, their first on Epitaph Records, which was released on April 22, 2008.

The band toured with Linkin Park on the Meteora World Tour in 2004 along with P.O.D. and Hoobastank.

The band has finished recording their latest album, and the release date is set for February 16, 2010
