Iced Earth
When the Eagle Cries
[Verse 1]
Another day, just like any other
Out of the blue, it turned into 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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Out of the ashes came a tempted 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
[Chorus]
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

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus – Fading]
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
They've only made us stronger
(Blood will flow
When the eagle cries)
We will sacrifice for freedom's fight
When the eagle cries!
(We love her so)
When the eagle cries
(We will sacrifice)
When the eagle cries
(Blood will flow)
When the eagle cries
