"8:46 a.m." (9/11 commemorative song)

Once upon a dark day...
Vocals, piano, drums, effects, editing, video, and orchestral synths done by me. Not a professional recording, but enjoy

The quiet, is killin' me inside
all the silence, and the beeping in the night
I close my eyes, and try to take a breath
but the memory of it all, oh it just can't rest

Somebody save me, somebody pick me up
Cause the weight of this tragedy is gettin' way too much
cause even though I wasn't there on that bleak September day
my heart still bleeds for the lost, in every way

Terror, and loss of life
but ten years later, we're rising back into the sky
cause we're still here, we're not givin' up the fight
rising through the ashes, into the night

Somebody save me, somebody pick me up
Cause the weight of this tragedy is gettin' way too much
Cause even though I wasn't there on that bleak September day
My heart still bleeds for the lost, in every way

But in the morning, we will fight, side by side
Unbroken, we are rising
and we will never forget...

Somebody save me, somebody pick me up
cause the weight of this tragedy is gettin' way too much
Cause even though I wasn't there on that bleak September day
my heart still bleeds for the lost, in every way

The quiet, it's killin' me inside
all the silence, and the beeping in the night
momma told me not to watch, cause I was only seven years old
but the memory of the lost, fills me with hope
