Our New World
Dream Theater Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Like her father once said
Love is not what you're given
It is how you decide to live
On the path you have chosen
So together we'll build a new world
A better world
We'll build a new world
Our new world

I know you're scared and alone
But we will face this together
Through the innocence in your eyes
They will live on forever
In their memory we'll build a new world
A better world
We'll build a new world
Our new world, yeah

Yeah, we'll build a new world
A better world
We'll build a new world
Our new world

Yeah together
We'll build a new world
A wondrous world
Yeah
We'll build a new world
A bold new world

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Dream Theater's song "Our New World" convey a message of hope, love, and resilience in the face of adversity. The song starts with a reference to a father's wisdom, emphasizing that love is not merely something that is given to us, but rather a conscious decision to live in a certain way. It speaks to the power of choice and the ability to create a better world for ourselves.


The lyrics then acknowledge the fear and loneliness that might be present, but it reassures that with unity and support, we can face any challenges together. The innocence in someone's eyes represents purity and the lasting impact that our actions and choices can have on future generations. It suggests that by keeping their memory alive and honoring them, we can strive to build a new world that is improved and more harmonious.

Italy LOVES Dream Theater!! Thank you for all the "Astonishing" music that you're making since 1985!

@buek14

+robertolippi1 Yeah I'm sure Trieste loves them the most after what happened.

@robertolippi1

+buek14 Nothing can be done against illnesses.. I've heard that they're likely to play again there in November, I'm not sure though, I know it's been a great delusion, but you can't blame the band

@buek14

+robertolippi1 The organizers did not contact the fans in time, not even before 12 hours or so. Moreover they didn't even arrive to the city, which means it was obvious they won't make it and still, no SMS, nor e-mail, not any form of communication towards us. I have traveled 1200 kms there and back from Budapest to witness the show, money and time dropped to trash. Afterwards I was looking around, I found that 5 hours before the show would have started, a fan site in facebook shared the news about the cancellation... 2 hours before the show, Rudess put it on facebook too. Well, thanks... I'm not blaming LaBrie getting sick actually... But I could have appreciated something more than this. Show their face at least, play the show in instrumental, get LaBrie's parts from playback, jam something... or anything. Not just go by the city without letting us even know that.

For instance, Nightwish didn't cancel the show when the vocalist was taken to hospital few hours before the show, nor when a whole festival was cancelled, they did make it. Bands usually cancel the shows right, but they inform the fans in time...unlike this joke.
