Welcome to the New Year

Welcome to the new year with old woes,
fighting again with old friends and new foes
midnight terror rocket blast
all the horrors of the past
continuing

Welcome to the new year and another war
what the hell is this one for?
This misery will never end
while virtue bows and justice bends
to evil men

Welcome to the new year just like old times
waking up to news of your war crimes
all the blood that you have spilled
all the people you have killed
gleefully

Welcome to the new year, let it be
something more than our history
a year when we persist
a year when we resist
your cruelty
