Today, of all days, why today?

How could such a thing happen?

I’d be lying if I said I had nothing to say

No one was laughin’ or clappin’

I never thought I’d see this

Never so close, to such a degree

It was just so amiss

Unbelievably gross to see

Everyone decided to flee,

And yes that includes me

I know, I know, hypocrisy

But who was willing to help in this time of need

It’s just my curiosity

I know how much this made the country bleed

I mean honestly, could we show more unity?

This is still bothering me, it’s just crazy

It’s caused so much uncertainty

So many people were hurt and marked forever

So many lost under the dirt and never.....found

How sad, how much hate was needed to do it

All the work that it took to brew it

The pilots that accomplished this tragedy

Had to be in a state of insanity, committing this blasphemy

At least, that’s what it was to me

This can’t be what He wanted, it can’t be

It was alarmingly the worst catastrophe I’ve ever witnessed

Nothing to be diminished

Once the act was finished,

It was distinguished as the deadliest strike in the U.S.

That spot can never be replenished

Those killed, just vanished

Those pilots, banished

Not by us but perhaps by Him, if He existed

He’d know that His laws were twisted

Or perhaps their minds were misted

I’ll never know, we’ll never know

But many don’t need to

Because it was something they did indeed do

And it only takes one deed to be hated

One event and all hell is created,

Everyone devastated, and so many now irritated

But to be educated is to know that bricks are put on one by one

But it only takes one to knock down the sum

And that is what we cannot overcome
