Democracy Will Never Die

I saw the light of that morning fading As democracy was now crippling First one and then the second tower went tumbling But the good old Red Blue & White was still flying I saw my neighbors screaming and dying While I felt helpless and in mourning I heard their screams of agony As I looked on in misery I felt the pain of suffering families As I watched and listened to the homilies I can still see the faces of the enemy As I sleep tossing and turning endlessly I try to remember that God is all-loving and all-forgiving But my enemy tells me that God is One-loving and too forbidding Perhaps this is the reason I stopped going to church long ago Seeing the hypocrisy of sinners and lovers and the foe Today I'll pray at home for all the souls who have died so needlessly Not just for my American neighbors but those who've fought courageously So that I may enjoy my freedom in a world that is always brave and free God, please watch over the beautiful souls of those who have died for our freedom And give courage to their families who will some day join You in your Kingdom
