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
A false sense of pride the ruling class has forced us all to demand what they supplyWelcome to our new war
Where the rich sell their lies to the poor
We're dying but we don't know what for
Welcome to our new warIn a troubled time, in an age of fear
We place our trust, in the insincere
As the waiting minds, are misinformed
The ones in charge, are just adding to the scoreThe 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 signWelcome to our new war
Where the rich sell their lies to the poor
We're dying but we don't know what for
Welcome to our new war
Welcome to our new war
Welcome to our new warIs this 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 the sirens will sound
And at last they will scream no more no more
At last they will scream no more, no more, no more, no more, no moreNo!The power elites wear the thickest disguise
Setting the rules as the classes divide they keep their heartless
Eyes on the prize and leave the masses with a lifetime of poverty and crimeWelcome to our new war
Where the rich sell their lies to the poor
We're dying but we don't know what for
Welcome to our new warWelcome to our new war
Where the rich sell their lies to the poor
We're dying but we don't know what for
Welcome to our new war
To our new war
War!

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
