Silence Of The City
Danny Jones

It was Tuesday afternoon

I got home from work right soon

I turned on the tv and what did I see

I saw World War iii staring back at me

I thought I might wake up to reality

There wasn't gonna be (yeah)

And all I could see was this refuted tragedy


In the silence of the city

No mobile phones ring

In the silence of the city

You cannot hear a thing

In the silence of the city

The smiles are washed away

In the silence of the city

There's nothing left to say


New York, New York

So good they named you twice

The city that never sleeps

Do you believe your eyes

In a violence act of war

The Big Apple is in all too the cold

And two tall towers

Crumble to the floor

And Manhattan is a lair

Cause there is no more


In the silence of the city

No mobile phones ring

In the silence of the city

You cannot hear a thing

In the silence of the city

The smiles are washed away

In the silence of the city

There's nothing left to say


And hardened New York cops

With tears in their eyes

Tired and all the firefighters

Hoping to hear cries

And the numerous paramedics

Overcome by exhaustion and all

Rescue workers feel the deep emotion


In the silence of the city

No mobile phones ring

In the silence of the city

You cannot hear a thing

In the silence of the city

The smiles are washed away

In the silence of the city

There's nothing left to say


The 11th of September 2001

The World Trade Centre and the us Pentagon

These pictures that we've seen

Almost defies belief

On the streets of New York City

People all hear by shared peace


In the silence of the city

No mobile phones ring

In the silence of the city

You cannot hear a thing

In the silence of the city

The smiles are washed away

In the silence of the city

There's nothing left to say


The New York City Skyline

We all admire before

Tall twin towers

To plea of them no more

Silence of the city [x7]
