As One Who Is
Gaping holes Ball of flames Shattered glass Ripped metal Ash-covered fire trucks Running police cars Pillow thick smoke Bruises to a city Eerie shakes Sudden rattles Puff of ash Scrambling firefighters Frantic cameramen Shepherding police Frightened pedestrians Collapse of a brother As one who has lost, I'm sympathetic As one who's patriotic, I'm silenced As one who has failed, I'm reminded As one who is proud, I'm defeated Hanging cloud Pervading whiteness Clear blue sky SongtexteA sobbing witness Shrouded tower Ever-present confusion A crack, the fall Unfolding destruction Glowing sunlight Awakening city Clinging ash clouds Lowered skyline Arabs celebrating World stage mourning 8:45, Wednesday A moment of silence As one who has lost, I'm sympathetic As one who's patriotic, I'm silenced As one who has failed, I'm reminded As one who is proud, I'm defeated It's like A slap to the face A punch in the gut A kick to the shin A stab in the back A jab to the jaw A shot in the chest A pain so indescribable... Smoldering aluminum Indented structures Charred buildings Blackened crater Ash-covered sidewalks Street side mortuaries Grounded planes A nation on hold As one who has lost, I'm sympathetic As one who's patriotic, I'm silenced As one who has failed, I'm reminded As one who is proud, I'm defeated As an optimist, I'm hopeful As a realist I'm doubtful As an American, I'm angered As a human being, I'm disgusted Aus Songtexte Mania
