Outcry

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Somewhere overhead a distant thunder roars

The revolution has begun, the war to end all wars

As I welcome death I hear the battle cry

Bullets fall like fire, raining from the sky

The rebel in us all

Someday gets tired of being pushed around

But freedom has a price

The cost is buried in the ground

[Pre-Chorus 1]

We suffered far too long

We gather now growing stronger

We will not be ignored

Anymore any longer

Our anthem will guide us

[Chorus]

Rise up, be counted

Stand strong and unite

Wait for the outcry

Resistance is calling tonight

[Verse 2]

Far too many years of chaos and unrest

Far too many voices, brutally suppressed

We fight for what is just for all that we believe

We fight till death or glory, fight to be set free

The streets are bathed in blood

Time to step down and time to walk away

You'll never rule me now

Though you may stand upon my grave

[Instrumental Break]

[Guitar Solo]

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus 2]

You can look the other way

Or you can face the light

Although it seems so far away

Freedom's worth the fight

[Chorus]

Rise up, be counted

Stand strong and unite

Wait for the outcry

Resistance is calling

Rise up, be counted

Stand strong and unite

Wait for the outcry

Resistance is calling tonight

[Outro]

The world watches on

While we risk our lives

Locked in a kingdom of fear

As our children die
