911

*dedicated to everyone touched by the events of 9/11/01


we all felt it ringing in our ears
never knew the frailty or the fear
hold me please, i can't open my eyes
where are you? it's too late to say goodbye
i need you now...

nothing will be the same after this
the streets are cluttered with empty sobs
the streets are cluttered, the streets are cluttered
nothing will ever make up for this
the streets are empty, there's no one left
the streets are empty, the streets are empty
are we going to live locked in fear?
are we going to say goodbye?
goodbye...

no more children playing without a care
seeing smiles suddenly becomes so rare
i struggle to breathe in the air of locked doors
how long can we pretend that we'll find more?
tell me this is a dream...

nothing will be the same after this
the streets are cluttered with empty sobs
the streets are cluttered, the streets are cluttered
nothing will ever make up for this
the streets are empty, there's no one left
the streets are empty, the streets are empty
are we going to live locked in fear?
are we going to say goodbye?
goodbye...

and no one's willing to believe
no one has the will to let go
no one wants to admit defeat
no one
can say
goodbye...

no one can say goodbye
no one could say goodbye
i never got to say goodbye.
