When the Eagle Cries

Another day just like any other
Out of the blue it turned to horror
How could they?
Why would they?
The innocent suffered hell’s inferno
A senseless act that goes unforgotten
How could they?
They will pay

When the eagle cries
(Blood will flow)
When the eagle cries
(For freedom’s fight)
When the eagle cries
(We love her so)
When the eagle cries
(We will sacrifice)
When the eagle cries

Out of the ashes came a tempting vengeance
But we are focused, we seek redemption
We are free
We’ll stay free
All they’ve done is make us stronger
The sleeping giant is asleep no longer
If need be
We’ll die free

When the eagle cries
(Blood will flow)
When the eagle cries
(For freedom’s fight)
When the eagle cries
(We love her so)
When the eagle cries
(We will sacrifice)
When the eagle cries
