This song was written on September 12th 2001. I worked in Manhattan and the day of the attacks will always be on my mind. I personally knew a good amount of people who both made it out of the towers and I also knew a good amount of people who didn?t make it out of the towers. The initial reports were that 5000 people were estimated to have died. It turns out that number was more in the 3000 neighborhood but regardless it was horrible and I wanted to keep the original words that I had written that day? The four ?mistakes? or ?crashes? you hear at the beginning of the song represent the 4 airplanes (I?m not that bad a musician?.).

The Twins Near the Sea

I cant see the twins near the sea
Taken from me, a view of beauty
5000 souls taken away, one minute they are here and then they?re gone away
I cant see the twins near the sea,
Everytime I look to see, there is nothing its so empty
My fine and proud city, with no more twins near the sea
Everytime I look and see the skyline it disturbs me
I cant see my twins near the sea, the lives taken by thee, pure insanity
The evil that has done this deed, we will conquer, we will defeat
Then maybe I will see, new towers by the sea
I cant see the twins near the sea,
Everytime I look to see, there is nothing its so empty
My fine and proud city, with no more twins near the sea
Everytime I look and see the skyline it disturbs me
I cant see the twins near the sea
Taken from me, a view of beauty
I cant see the twins near the sea?.
