When the Towers Fell

Lyrics

[Verse]
Sunrise found us downtown, where shadows used to lay,
Coffee in hand, we watched the news, life slowed down that day.
Smoking ruins built on secrets, the skyline left in tears,
Whispers ’neath the rubble, still echo in our ears.

[Verse 2]
Tower 7 fell to earth, no storm, no waving hand,
A silent collapse in daylight, hard to understand.
Metal bones crumbled, and dust filled the air,
Answers just out of reach, lost in thin despair.

[Chorus]
What brings a giant to its knees, when there's no fatal blow?
Questions rise like morning fog, where did the truth go?
Buildings fall, hearts break, we watched and wondered how,
The ghosts of Tower 7 haunt our memories now.

[Verse 3]
Folks 'round here got stories, spoken soft and slow,
Voices choked with disbelief, but the tales still grow.
Glimpses of the unseen, behind windows we dare not pry,
In the heart of Manhattan, only shadows know why.

[Bridge]
Government reports, hearings that took their toll,
But behind the curtains, what secrets do they hold?
Digging through the silence with theories in hand,
A search for understanding that few could truly stand.

[Chorus]
What brings a giant to its knees, when there's no fatal blow?
Questions rise like morning fog, where did the truth go?
Buildings fall, hearts break, we watched and wondered how,
The ghosts of Tower 7 haunt our memories now.
