Oh the dark clouds
Are filling the sky overhead
And we know that
We'll live and we'll die without dread
For the pledges we make
Are the words that we'll write
On our hearts and our children
Will live by their light
On our hearts we will write
And our children will live by their light

Strike up the band my brothers
Swallow your fear and troubles
Raise up your glass and drink as one
Dance till you wake a demon
Sing till the dead can hear and
Fight like tomorrow's never gonna come

Oh the pride of the land
Runs in everyone's veins
Let the world understand
What we do on this day
We are bound by a dream
That is stronger than stone
For we long to call
Freedom our home
Yes we long to call
Freedom our home

Strike up the band my brothers
Swallow your fear and troubles
Raise up your glass and drink as one
Dance till you wake a demon
Sing till the dead can hear and
Fight like tomorrow's never gonna come

You can sing
Strike up the band up my brothers
Sing till the dead cannot hear
Fight like tomorrow's never gonna come
Dance till you wake up
