do you know the cost of future misery? 
have you lost your sense of sustainability? 
we are just a step away 
from realizing what we strive to be 
but we've got to break out 
from this insulated blind and lame senility 
wake up the new america 
wo-oh! 
transcend the mass hysteria 
wo-oh! 
change is the thing you're wary of 
wo-oh! 
we need a new america 
wo-oh! 
laurels, human triumph, 
bestowments from the past 
victories don't mean a thing 
if they don't last 
we are just marching toward extinction 
with blinders on our eyes 
jeopardizing everything 
we've learned and come to realize 
you call that wise? 
open your eyes america 
wo-oh! 
see through the lies they tell to us 
wo-oh! 
confront the fears that worry us 
wo-oh! 
we need a new america 
wo-oh! 
we don't have to be afraid to re-invent 
we've got to start to build, 
progress, and implement 
for when we take our fill, 
and never pay the price 
we only build ourselves a fleeting, 
false paradise 
you can live in staunch denial 
and mark me as your enemy 
but I'm just a voice among the throng 
who want a brighter destiny 
they say with me 
we are the new america 
wo-oh! 
this is the new america? 
wo-oh
