Is there a reason for me to hurt?
Is there a reason to be put in the dirt?
To turn to ash , The color of gray.
To be put in the ground .
Beneath the layers of clay.
Only a memory, A thought in one's . . .

You sit there and you watch it go.
When young , It seemed to move too slow.
A lot of it was spent on play.
The darkness came and took the day.
To lay at night and watch the stars.
And hear the sound . . .

The old man walked down the dusty road.
Kicking stones . Age on him showed.
Thoughts from the past come from time to time.
A small child playing . Laughter , crying.
Having Mother hold you . . .

Within these walls of wisdom.
Where our children learn.
Where can they go for guidance?
To whom can they turn?
Let them say whats on their mind.
If it's prayer ,Then let them . . .

I can love you. I can hate you .
I can hold you till the end.
I see you when you're not there.
I read letters you don't send.
I can open up my heart to you.
I can offer you my soul. . . .

From the dust and the smoke of the towers that fell.
With the metal and concrete. It all looks like hell.
Death and destruction for the country to see.
Brings forth the pride and the faith of the American . . .

I've been through doors that made me happy.
I've gone through doors that made me sad.
Behind doors it did excite me.
Behind doors I've often cried.
Behind doors I saw my father . . .

I admire her from a distance.
As you would a piece of art.
Afraid to say things That I feel.
To touch or share my heart.
My body is a vessel . With a heart of stone within.
I fear for all . . .

I know not what I wanted in life.
As a young man long ago.
It seems to be a lifetime.
As on my face it seems to show.
No longer wet behind the ears.
But, Now white upon my head.
