DAY OF DESPAIR

 

Original composition by Dale

 

SEPTEMBER ELEVENTH, DAY OF DESPAIR,

TERROR COMES TO US FROM UP IN THE AIR.

DESTRUCTION AND HORROR, THEY DIDN’T FIGHT FAIR,

KILLED INNOCENT PEOPLE WITHOUT THOUGHT OR CARE.

 

SEPTEMBER ELEVENTH TWO THOUSAND AND ONE,

THE WAR AGAINST TERRORIST HAS NOW BEGUN.

WE’LL FIGHT YOU WITH MISSILES, INTELLIGENCE AND GUNS,

AMERICANS WON’T STOP TILL THE WAR HAS BEEN WON.

 

OUR WORLD WAS CHANGED ON NINE ELEVEN,

FIVE THOUSAND AND MORE SENT TO HEAVEN.

LEFT US BEHIND TO WONDER AND REASON,

WE MUST GO ON LIKE THE CHANGE OF THE SEASON.

 

SEPTEMBER ELEVEN TWO THOUSAND AND ONE,

MANY HERO’S WERE FOUND, MANY NOW GONE.

OUR SPIRITS ARE STRONGER, OUR WORK IS NOT DONE,

AMERICA IS STRONGER AND WE WILL GO ON.

 

THE TUESDAY THE ELEVENTH OF SEPTEMBER,

A DAY FOR US TO ALWAYS REMEMBER.

WE’LL STAND AS ONE, HOLD MEMORIES TENDER,

GOD BLESS AMERICA, WE WILL NEVER SURRENDER.

 

SEPTEMBER ELEVENTH, PEOPLE SUFFERED AND DIED,

THEY HAVE NOT BEATEN US, EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE TRIED.

WE WILL STAND TOGETHER, SIDE BY SIDE,

THEY’VE BROUGHT US TOGETHER, OUR AMERICAN PRIDE.
