The sound of gunfire shocked a nation
Five down, five people dead
The country wakes up after 50 years asleep

And the flag has got a slight touch of red

Blood on the ground

There's a new war running
Blood on the ground
The curtain falls

1999 the wakeup call

A number of coldblooded murders

Broke the silence hear the battlecry
A country wakes up after 50 years asleep
And they're looking thru halfway open eyes
