Lyrics

AMERICA TODAY

1ST: SAY A PRAYER FOR THE WOUNDED TONIGHT, LORD GUIDE THEM INTO YOUR LIGHT. SENSELESS MURDER WITH TEMPERED RAGE, ANOTHER VICTIM?S NAME GETS PUT ON THE PAGE. QUICK CALL 911, BUT THE DAMAGE IS ALREADY DONE. THE FINAL WORDS SHE WOULD SAY, IS I LOVE YOU AND NOW THEY TOOK IT AWAY.


CHORUS: BUT WERE TAKING IT TO THE STREETS, WE?RE HOLDING OUR FLAG, STANDING ON OUR FEET. WELL AMERICA WAS BUILT THAT WAY, AND NO MATTER WHAT OTHERS MAY SAY. WELL WE?LL STAND AND WE?LL CRY, WE?LL SING WITH OUR VOICES HIGH. WE?LL STAND, WE?LL SHOUT AND SAY, GOD BLESS AMERICA TODAY. TODAY.


2ND: WELL THE BUILDINGS CAME TUMBLING DOWN, WE CRIED WHEN WE HEARD THE SOUND. WE STOOD THERE AND WATCHED IN FRIGHT, I?M SORRY MAM YOU LOST YOU?RE HUSBAND THAT NIGHT. AND GOD IF YOUR THERE, COULD YOU HEED THIS ONE LAST PRAYER... COULD YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY, WHY?D THEY TAKE THOSE LIVES WITH THEIR PLANES IN THE SKIES? CAN YOU ANSWER WHY?


CHORUS:
