—An Unexpected Call—
—Part One—

(Arianna's Story):
'Wake up!
What's going down?!
That's the sound,
of Freedom!...

Check out!
This thing we found!
That's the sound,
Of freedom!...

We have battled with our,
Backs to the walls!
We have struggled to win,
Freedom for us all!...

We have lost so many friends!
It's important that we win!
Won't you join us?
Everybody, hear the call!

Cause together we can,
Get our freedom back!
Do not falter, We must go!
On the attacks!

Oh, freedom is the price!
Keep it shining in your eyes!
No, We won't bend!
We won't even cry!

Wake up!
What's going down?!
That's the sound,
Of freedom!

Check out!
This thing we found!
That's the sound,
Of freedom!'

'It started out as a feeling!...
Which then grew into a hope!...
Which then turned,
into a quiet thought!
Which then turned,
into a quiet word!...

And then that word,
grew louder and louder!...
'Til it was a battle cry...
I'll come back,
when you call me!
No need to say goodbye!

Just because,
everything's changing!...
Doesn't mean it's never been,
this way before!...
All you can do is try to know
who your friends are!...
As you head off to the war!

Pick a star on the dark horizon,
and follow the light!...
You'll come back when it's over!
No need to say goodbye...
You'll come back when it's over!
No need to say goodbye...

Now we're back,
to the beginning!...
It's just a feeling,
and no one knows yet!...
But just because,
they can't feel it too!...

Doesn't mean that
you have to forget!...
Let your memories,
grow stronger and stronger,
'Til they're before your eyes!...

You'll come back,
when they call you!
No need to say goodbye...
You'll come back,
when they call you!
No need to say goodbye...'

—Part Two—
'Seven a.m.,
the usual morning lineup
Start on the chores and sweep
'till the floor's all clean
Polish and wax, do laundry,
and mop and shine up
Sweep again, and
by then it's like 7:15
And so I'll read a book!
Or maybe two or three!

I'll add a few new paintings
to my gallery
I'll play guitar and knit!
And cook and basically,
Just wonder,
when will my life begin?

Then after lunch it's puzzles,
and darts and baking!...
Paper mache,
a bit of ballet and chess!

Pottery and ventriloquy,
candle making!
Then I'll stretch,
maybe sketch, take a climb
Sew a dress!

And I'll reread the books...
If I have time to spare!
I'll paint the walls some more!...
I'm sure there's room somewhere!...

And then I'll brush and brush,
And brush and brush my hair,
Stuck in the same place,
I've always been!...
And I'll keep wanderin',
and wanderin'...
And wanderin' and wonderin'
When will my life begin?

And tomorrow night...
The lights will appear,
Just like they do,
on my birthday each year!...
What is it like,
Out there where they glow?
Now that I'm older,
Mother might just,
Let me go?...'

—Part Three—
'You think you know me!
But you don't know me!
You think you own me!
But you can't control me!

You look at me,
And there's just one thing,
that you see!
So listen to me!
Listen to me!

You push me back!
I push you back!
Harder, harder!
You scream at me!
I scream at you!
Louder, l-l-l-l-louder!

I'm dangerous, I'm warning you!
But you're not afraid of me!
And I can't convince you!
You don't know me!

You think you got me!
But you don't get me!
You think you want me!
But you don't know,
what you're getting into!

There's so much more to me,
then what you think you see!
So listen to me!
Just listen to me!

You push me back!
I push you back!
Harder, harder!
You scream at me!
I scream at you!
Louder, l-l-l-l-louder!

I'm dangerous, I'm warning you!
But you're not afraid of me!
And I can't convince you!
You don't know me!

And the longer that you stay,
the ice is melting!...
And the pain feels okay,
it feels okay!... (hey)

You push me back!
I push you back!
You scream at me!
I scream at you!
Louder!! (10x)

You push me back!
I push you back!
Harder, harder!
You scream at me!
I scream at you!
Louder, l-l-l-l-louder!

I'm dangerous, I'm warning you!
But you're not afraid of me!
And I can't convince you!
And I don't have to!...
I think you know me!...'
