the seawinds are calling
And the city is far far away
Soon the sea turns to darkness
It is night and the seawinds are calling
Seawinds call, seawinds call

thinking with just one mind
Branded and pierced,
fists in the air tonight
Millions of lives,
brought together by common ground
A family entwined,
one global nation profound
All lyrics written by Mark Tornillo.

Following the shadows, with the sun till it disappears
Thousands of stone white crosses, a formation for all to see
With flags and flames, the ranks and the names of those who died to be free- Shadow Soldiers
- What's wrong, with this picture
The poor get poorer and the rich get richer
Banks ready to foreclose..... "hard luck”
Occupy the streets
Get up, take action, be a link in the chain reaction
It's time to unify..... "stand up"
Get up on your feet- Revolution

Branded and pierced, fists in the air tonight
Millions of lives, brought together by common ground
A family entwined, one global nation profound- Against the World

Tensions rise, push the needle to red
Pick up the tempo, it's getting late
You've got that inner need...... accelerate- The Quick and the Dead
