I was in hospital, when this flashed across the tv screen. I watched in disbelief and was in a state of shock. I forgot my pain and took on the pain of a nation and much of the world. The tears, the screams, people clinging to hope. I felt so helpless. We tried to reach out with a song and hope it means something to someone out there. It was our initial feelings. May God bless America. Please hear it all in their honor..

Terror of New York (copyright Tlee and Iris)

The world in shock is but a sign
That hate may reign till the end of time
September 11th, Year 2001
Many went to heaven with the early morning sun
A suicide mission from somewhere in the sky
Their selfish intention was for Americans to die
People burned from head to toe
Clinging to life with all they know
Hospitals full, I can hear their screams
Everybody's holding to their dreams

Hi-jacked planes hit the walls, the crash made em' rumble
200 thousand tons of steel to the earth did crumble
TV NEWS FLASH! was the World Trade Center
Fiery flames, gaping holes, no way you could enter
Trapped in Total darkness, fear was in the air
The Terror of New York and people everywhere

A human war zone, we face the enemy
Who's trying to dispute that America is free
That we're vulnerable, they're hoping they can prove
That America is weak, that America can lose
Thousands went to work that day
Hate went too, took their lives away
Little did they know that today they die
Leaving their loved ones, here to cry

Pentagon in Washington, Twin Towers in Manhattan
Don't try messing with our freedom, we won't let it happen
We'll surely track you down, make you understand
Don't ever threaten America for we'll defend this land

200 thousand tons of steel to the earth did crumble
Those hi-jacked planes hit the walls, the crash made 'em rumble
TV NEWS FLASH! Was the World Trade Center
Fiery flames, gaping holes, no way you could enter
Trapped in total darkness, fear was in the air
The Terror of New York and people everywhere

Fade out..God Bless America
