3. When the Eagle Cries (4:07)
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 fall)
When the eagle cries
(for freedom's fight)
When the eagle cries
(we love our souls)
When the eagle cries
(we will sacrifice)
When the eagle cries
Out of the ashes came attempted 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 fall)
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
When the eagle cries
When the eagle cries
The fall that made us stronger
When the eagle cries
We will sacrifice
When the eagle cries
Freedom's fight
When the eagle cries
When the eagle cries
(We love her so)
When the eagle cries
(We will sacrifice)
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 fall)
When the eagle cries
(for freedom's fight)
When the eagle cries
(we love our souls)
When the eagle cries
(we will sacrifice)
When the eagle cries
Out of the ashes came attempted 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 fall)
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
When the eagle cries
When the eagle cries
The fall that made us stronger
When the eagle cries
We will sacrifice
When the eagle cries
Freedom's fight
When the eagle cries
When the eagle cries
(We love her so)
When the eagle cries
(We will sacrifice)
