It
Hurts
It hurts... the fear,
The loss, the tears.
And it seems like years,
Yet still so clear.
The horror of that day,
I still feel it, yet...
War didn’t stop the pain
Just increased our debt
It hurts.
Well-meaning friends
Send and resend,
E-mail me with their pleas:
"Don’t break this, please."
Can’t forward anymore,
Not that I can forget;
There simply is too much.
Still my heart is touched
With hurt... 9-11 hurts.
I still see the Towers fall,
Hear the screams, read "Let’s Roll!"
Weary firemen, rubble, ash,
And flowers on the ground.
It’s burned into my brain.
Yet still they can’t refrain
From showing it again.
Make us relive the pain.
It hurts. 9-11 hurts. 9-11 hurts.
They all cash in.
They fill their bins.
With flow’rs and flags-high priced.
Won’t prayers suffice?
We know where the fault lies.
Comes as no surprise.
How can they sleep at night.
When so many died?
It hurts. 9-11 hurts. 9-11 hurts. Oh-oohhhhh...
