Sacrificed Sons lyrics
by Dream Theater
(This has all the...extraordinarily well coordinated and devastating terrorist attack.)
(Terrorism against our nation will not stand. The government will hunt down those responsible.)
(Terrorism means striking terror into the hearts of people. That has been accomplished.)
(Looking in awe, amazement, shock, and grief, and anger at what they were seeing in front of them...)
(There has just been a huge explosion. You can see..uh...a pillar of smoke rising...there was a cascade of sparks and fire...and we see this extraordinarily and frightening scene behind us.)
(There is panic on the streets. There are people screaming and running.)
(Good Lord...there are no words.)
(Three thousand Palestinians...the madness, chanting "God is good.")
(This is just a horrific scene and a horrific moment, but just look at that...that is about as frightening a scene as you will ever see.)
(...but there are times in our lives that are life changing, where your life can never be the same, and this appears certainly to be one of them.)
Walls are closing
Anxiously
Channel surfing
Frantically
Burning City
Smoke and fire
Planes we're certain
Faith inspired
No clues
A complete surprise
Who'll be
Coming home tonight
Heads all turning
Towards the sky
Towers crumble
Heroes die
Who would wish this
On our people
And proclaim
That His will be done
Scriptures they heed have misled them
All praise their Sacrificed sons
All praise their Sacrificed sons
Teach them
What to think and feel
Your ways
So enlightening
Words they preach
I can't relate
If God's true Love
Are acts of hate
Who would wish this
On our people
And proclaim
That His will be done
Scriptures they heed have misled them
All praise their Sacrificed sons
All praise their Sacrificed sons
God on High
Our mistake
Will mankind be extinct?
There's no time
Time to waste
Who serves the truth
For Heaven's sake
