Shaken Innocence
Walk hand in hand to future gone A light of blindness brightly shone
Vanquished mortality downward plunge Explanation screaming with poignant lunge
To earth to dust return we must Battered and soiled in whom we trust
Savagery negates all serious fame But lusts the need to lay the blame
Fuelled anger forges patriotic pride Against the clouded smoke swept sky hide
Heroes mounting cost exclaimed Crying out loudly they all proclaim
For innocent are we laid down in sacrifice Hold no ill hate toward the maddening vice
Lest we lose honour on humanity's fields By lowering the standard of our shields
Agony surrounds the pit from hell Ring the sound of silence from every bell
Scourge every place leave none unturned The blessed souls flamed fired burned
Hallowed fellowship in heavenly host The lurid tragedy ultimately bled the most
The mighty eagle rises and soars Underneath America aroused does roar
Tributes magnify across the land Hold one another enclose a hand
Embraced the nations unite to defend Growing strengths terror mounted descend
Glories angered anguished response deluge Fear inspired heart wrenched rage looms huge
Desperate families holding lasting hope Never may they ever learn to cope
Folding arms encompass the masses serene Massive gathering under operation clean
People cluster to find comfort seek Head held high above the dreadful reek
Singing souls reach high above Sending spirits single tasked dove
Never more to forget us lest All the worthy now at rest
