Where were you when the red star fell
Did you hear the tolling of the bell
A million people on the streets
They march as one they march for peace

Breaking free from the iron fist
The price you pay a deadly risk
Live no more in fear and shame
The hammers gone release from blame

The tanks have left the walls torn down
The sound of silence all around
Hear no more the screams of pain
Freedom now the beast is slain
Did you see the red star falling?

Where were you when the red flag burned
The ashes gone the tables turned
One by one the cracks appeared
The overlord no longer feared

The children sing and dance once more
On the streets no signs of war
The strangle hold that held you tight
Brocken now no will to fight

The guards have gone the wire torn down
The sound of silence all around
Hear no more the screams of pain
Freedom now the beast is slain

The beast is slain
Did you see the red star falling?
Falling down

They marched as one to see
The red flag falling
They paid there price the price for liberty

Where were you when the red star died
Did you raise your voices to the sky
Forgotten now the fear and pain
Or does the memory still remain

The people held in bonds of steel
It took so long to break the seal
After all that's said and done
A million people can't be wrong

The tanks have left the walls torn down
The sound of silence all around
Hear no more the screams of pain
Freedom now the beast is slain

The beast is slain
Did you see the red star falling?
Falling down
