Whispers of 9-11

Can you hear the whispers from back on Nine Eleven?
the day 4 swords created so much devastation

Do you hear the cries from New York?
can you feel the kisses from loved ones, on this day, never returned from work

Can you hear the sound of steel, and glass as it breaks?
do you remember the debris falling, just like snow flakes

Do you remember me? I was in the towers that plunged to the ground
just one of the many, that will never be found

Can you hear the footsteps in Washington ?
rushing to the fractured side, of the Pentagon

Can you hear the famous words of a hero?
let's roll

Can you hear their voices, as they take the plane down?
away from the target, crashing it into the ground

Just a plain field in the Pennsylvania hills
where all these new soldiers were to be killed

Many a hero were made that day
like all the Firemen that passed away

So came the terrorists that stabbed our hearts
and in the middle of New York city lies the scar

So this day is upon us once again
do we remember those voices that carry across the wind

Those whispers that crash through our souls, as loud as thunder
as loud as those 4 planes that plundered

What do these whispers says to us
don't give in, move on, we must

But never forget what has happened here
don't forget our pain, and tears

From this yesterday gone by
the day 4 swords pierced the heart of a nation, from the sky

Hear these whispers in the wind
the voices from back on Nine Eleven
