Story of the Year Follow

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
Where 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 minds - are misinformed
The ones in charge - are just adding to the score

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)

So welcome to our new war
Where 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

Is this the price that we pay (price that we pay)
For living with our (living with our) eyes closed?

Backs against the wall…
At the top of the hill (at the top of the hill)…
Where the powerful thrive (where the powerful thrive)…
There’s a strong disregard (there’s a strong disregard)…
For this human life (for this human life)…
When the winds start to change (when the winds start to change)…
And the meek crowd the floor (and the meek crowd the floor)…
The sirens will sound (the sirens will sound)…
And at last they will scream (and at last they will scream no more)
No more!!!!
At last they will scream no more!!!
No more
No more

No!

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 crime

So welcome to our new war
Where 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
Where 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!
