Isn't it interesting how it all went down?
Couldn't have made it up if ya tried
Down on the dead end street
At the guardrail, across from her house
Where all our friends hung out
Smoking joints into the wee hours
Just blissfully hanging around
Talking shit and fooling about
Never knew it could all come down
That morning, it all fell down
You can try but you'll never know the reason why
The fates take a man 'fore his time
How can the hurt disappear
How can the the grief reside
If ya never know the reason why?
On that fateful day in a flash of pain
When the towers came down on fire
I lost a friend, was a damn good man
And it echoes through my time
Yeah It echoes through our time
Isn't it interesting, how you never know?
When freedom will sting, what karma can bring, no no
When men devout are determined to die out loud and bring pain
When leaders devout only ask ya to spend more money in vain
Just blissfully shop head down
Never question how this came about
Ain't no way to figure it out
That morning, it all fell down
You can try but you'll never know the reason why
The fates take a man 'fore his time
How can the hurt disappear
How can the the grief reside
If ya never know the reason why?
On that fateful day in a flash of pain
When the towers came down on fire
I lost a friend, was a damn good man
And it echoes through my time
Yeah It echoes through our time
I miss the innocent delights, down at the guardrail
Those sacred nights
I miss my childhood friend, his sardonic wit
His hilarious bent
I raise a toast to you all
You lost your loved ones, you paid the cost
I wish you all, my best
May they rest In peace, without end
You can try but you'll never know the reason why
The fates take a man 'fore his time
How can the hurt disappear
How can the the grief reside
If ya never know the reason why?
On that fateful day in a flash of pain
When the towers came down on fire
I lost a friend, was a damn good man
And it echoes through my time
Yeah It echoes through our time
And it echoes through my time
And it echoes through our time
