Thousands of souls (c)Rick Goggin 2001
V1
It was a bright september day
and it began in the same way
they didn't know their time was at an end
What began with hope and dreams
was to end in death and screams
for many of our family and friends
Ch1 thousands of souls will never die
cry out for justice to you and I
thousands of souls will never die
cry out for vengeance to an empty sky
V2
Oh it wasn't meant to be
a day of infamy
but it ended up in the blackest kind of pain
well the bravest, they went in
and were never seen again
'cause the sky came crashing down in a bloody rain
Br
i'm haunted by the faces of
the people who have died
the courage of those who raced to help
is burned across my mind
V3
all the fire and smoke and fear
won't be washed away by tears
so remember all the people we have lost
well they died so we could be
a people strong and free
it's a shame that freedom comes at such a cost
Ch2
thousands of souls will never die
cry out for justice to you and I
thousands of souls will never die
cry out for vengeance to an empty sky
cry, cry out for justice.
