Once there was a nation here,
Now there is no more.
Once we fought to change our fears,
But now this is our war.
This is our war
This is our war
Wash your mind out, where's your morals?
How many people have to live this sorrow?
Life should not be begged or borrowed
How many really want to change tomorrow?
We're still playing the prideful game,
As we profile the enemy that we created.
We're still playing the prideful game,
With the cards on the table
In the end we're all the same
Where's the compassion in the world today?
Yeah we're all the same
Until we find another way
This is our war
(This is our war)
Once there was a nation here,
Now there is no more.
(This is our war)
Once we fought for change arm in arm
But now this is our war.
Divisive words from ivory towers,
Seeds of intolerance turn into flowers.
Countless fools and reckless cowards,
Rally the people in the quest for power.
We're still playing the prideful game,
As we profile the enemy that we created.
We're still playing the prideful game,
With the cards on the table
In the end we're all the same
Where's the compassion in the world today?
Yeah we're all the same
Until we find another way
This is our war
(This is our war)
Once there was a nation here,
Now there is no more
(This is our war)
Once we fought for change arm in arm
But now this is our war.
Is this the land of segregation?
Is this a place that we call home?
Don't let the old style generation
Carry the flag for you and me no more.
This is our war
This is our war
We're into the red. We're into the red.
And as it burns the fire spreads.
We're under the threat. We're under the threat.
Will it still burn tomorrow?
Once there was a nation here,
Now there is no more
Once we fought to change our fears,
But now this is our war.
(This is our war)
Once there was a nation here,
Now there is no more
(This is our war)
Once we fought for change arm in arm
But now this is our war.
Is this the land of segregation?
Is this a place that we call home?
Don't let the old style generation
Carry the flag for you and me no more.
(This is our war)
Once there was a nation divided,
Now this is our war.
(This is our war)
Once we stand embraced arm in arm
We stand for something more
The lyrics THIS IS OUR WAR of BILLY TALENT is also present in the album Afraid of heights (2016)
Billy Talent è una rock band canadese formatasi nel 1993 con il nome originale di Pezz. I membri, che si conoscevano fin dalle scuole superiori, registrarono alcuni demo prima del loro primo album ufficiale del 1998. Il disco, intitolato *Watoosh!*, fu pubblicato indipendentemente e ottenne un discreto successo locale, ma non riuscì a raggiungere una popolarità nazionale. Nel 2003, il gruppo cambiò nome in Billy Talent e pubblicò l'album *Billy Talent*, che segnò la svolta per la band. Con successivi album come *Up Against the Wall* (2006) e *Billy Talent III* (2009), hanno conquistato un seguito internazionale, diventando uno dei gruppi rock più importanti del Canada. I loro brani sono caratterizzati da riff energici, testi introspettivi e una forte componente punk-rock. Alcuni dei loro brani più rappresentativi includono "Red Flag", "Devil on My Shoulder" e "Fallen Leaves".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
