The Story so Far Reprise by Timothy Morris Lyrics

The story began long ago
When we sent those ships afloat
Off to new and better lands we go
The story began long ago
It's the show
Ooh-ooh-ahh

Get off your American high
This is the story so far
Who we are is not always right
Long story short we have seen the light

We’ve fallen from the glory that we once held
And here we are destined to burn in hell
There was a pedestal accessible with the right heart
But with rejection of art we have fallen apart

Get off your American high
This is the story so far
Who we are is not always right
Long story short we have seen the light
Sing these songs from mountain high
Rich man give to the little guy
With the next of the bloodline to bring resurgence
Witness the rise of a new allegiance

The war, it has burned in my eyes
And the war, it is won, let us shine

Oh, yeah, yeah, oh, the story so far
Oh, yeah, yeah, oh, the story so far
Oh, yeah, yeah, oh, the story so far
Oh, yeah, yeah, oh, the story so far

We're off our American high
And thus ends the story so far
Long story short, join us in singing
Oh, don't you hear those bells a-ringing?
We’ve suffered at the hands of our own blade
But what a nation we've made
No longer lost in translation
So we begin our renovation
