| Lyrics: |
Burned into my eyes, the horror that I see upon the screen
Burned into my mind, the concrete cascade of death I’ve seen
Trapped in my ears, the piercing sound of thousands helpless screams
Trapped in my soul, the haunting truth that this is not a dream
Close my eyes; I can still can see the fires
Close my eyes; twisted steel and dangling wires
Close my eyes; bodies falling from the sky
Close my eyes; I can’t watch so many die
Burned into my eyes, the deadly airplanes final approach
Burned into my mind, the crumbling towers of dust and smoke
Trapped in my ears, the silence of a spirit that has died
Trapped in my soul, the weight of tears from millions that have cried
Close my eyes; I still see the impact
Close my eyes; how can I turn the clock back
Close my eyes; not a detail have I missed
Close my eyes; why did I have to see this
