Welcome to the World 2 by The Neal Morse Band Lyrics
So you've come here to shake the cage
To twist our times, to change our ways
We like entertainment and stuff we can't use
We like our death with the evening news
We can tell that you're not like we are
[Chorus]
Welcome to the world where the struggle is real
And you know how it feels to beg, plead or borrow
Welcome to the world where dreams come to die
And the innocents cry 'cause there ain't no tomorrow
Do you feel lucky?
Well, do ya, punk?
You better get used to this sorry junk
Behind closed doors we'll decide your fate
And take ya down with a smilin' face
No one knows that we're not who we are
[Chorus]
Welcome to the world where the struggle is real
And you know how it feels to beg, plead or borrow
Welcome to the world where dreams come to die
And the innocents cry 'cause there ain't no tomorrow
Welcome to the world
[Instrumental]
All the voices made their choices trapped in all they see
When all we did was try to live the best way we could be
Reaching out but still some doubt and darkness were still here
As we dissent, it did not relent
The Element of Fear
The Element of Fear
To twist our times, to change our ways
We like entertainment and stuff we can't use
We like our death with the evening news
We can tell that you're not like we are
[Chorus]
Welcome to the world where the struggle is real
And you know how it feels to beg, plead or borrow
Welcome to the world where dreams come to die
And the innocents cry 'cause there ain't no tomorrow
Do you feel lucky?
Well, do ya, punk?
You better get used to this sorry junk
Behind closed doors we'll decide your fate
And take ya down with a smilin' face
No one knows that we're not who we are
[Chorus]
Welcome to the world where the struggle is real
And you know how it feels to beg, plead or borrow
Welcome to the world where dreams come to die
And the innocents cry 'cause there ain't no tomorrow
Welcome to the world
[Instrumental]
All the voices made their choices trapped in all they see
When all we did was try to live the best way we could be
Reaching out but still some doubt and darkness were still here
As we dissent, it did not relent
The Element of Fear
The Element of Fear
