i obviously meant to post this yesterday but forgot. :/ anyway it was 911's 6th year anniversary. time passes so quickly and i wonder if anyone has really forgotten the incident? doubt it. for some reason i felt the fact the whole world was so affected by it has momentarily brought us together, just for one day. and then after that back to old squabbles and whatnot. is there really such thing as world peace? :/
anw some lyrics from songs abt 911:

The Cranberries - New New York
New new new, ahhhh x2 New New York skyline Wounds will heal in time Don't walk, oh don't you stay It's a new New York today Aahh Aahh
I look across these city streets My heart is numb, it still beats Nothing to say There’s nothing to say
I look across this empty room My heart is still in gloom There’s nothing to say I only can pray
I look across these city streets My heart is cold it beats The fear of men Ground zero today
Get down on my knees and pray For the heroes of the day For the comfort I can find For the loved ones left behind
They won't tear us apart x4 No way New day

Yellowcard - Believe
Think about the love inside the strength of heart Think about the heroes saving life in the dark Climbing higher through the fire, time was running out Never knowing you weren't going to be coming down alive But you still came back for me You were strong and you believed
Everything is gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Be strong, believe. Be strong, believe.
Think about the chance I never had to say Thank you for giving up your life that day Never fearing, only hearing voices calling out Let it all go, the life that you know, just to bring it down alive And you still came back for me You were strong and you believed
Everything is gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Be strong, believe.
(Again today, we take into our hearts and minds those who perished on this site one year ago, and also those who came to toil in the rubble to bring order out of chaos, to help us make sense of our despair)
Wanna hold my wife when I get home Wanna tell the kids they'll never know How much I love to see them smile Wanna make a change or two right now Wanna live a life like you somehow Wanna make your sacrifice worthwhile
Everything is gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Be strong, believe. Everything is gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Everything is gonna be alright Be strong, Believe.
Think about the love inside the strength of heart Think about the heroes saving life in the dark Think about the chance I never had to say Thank you for giving up your life that day
(The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here)
