It was a Tuesday afternoon,nI got home from work quite soon,nI turned on the TV and what did I see?nI saw World War Three staring back at me,nI thought I might wake up to reality.nThere wasn't going to be.nYeahnAnd all I could see was this horrific tragedy.nnIn the silence of the city,nNo mobile phones ring.nIn the silence of the city,nYou can not hear a thing.nIn the silence of the city,nSmiles are washed away.nIn the silence of the city,nThere's nothing left to say.nnNew York, New York.nSo good they named it twice.nThe city that never sleeps,nDo you believe your eyes?nDefy this act of war,nThe big apple is numb to the core.nAnd two tall towers,nCrumble to the floor.nAnd Manhatten is a layer,n'Cause they're no more.nnIn the silence of the city,nNo mobile phones ring.nIn the silence of the city,nYou can not hear a thing.nIn the silence of the city,nSmiles are washed away.nIn the silence of the city,nThere's nothing left to say.nnAnd hardened New York cops,nWith tears in their eyes.nTired and worn out firefighters,nHoping to hear cries.nAnd emergency medics,nOvercome by exhaustion.nAnd all rescue workers, nFilled with emotion.nnIn the silence of the city,nNo mobile phones ring.nIn the silence of the city,nYou can not hear a thing.nIn the silence of the city,nSmiles are washed away.nIn the silence of the city,nThere's nothing left to say.nnEleventh of September two-thousand and one.nWorld Trade Centre and the US Pentagon.nThese pictures that we see,nAlmost defies belief.nOn the streets of New York City,nPeople all hit by sheer grief.nnIn the silence of the city,nNo mobile phones ring.nIn the silence of the city,nYou can not hear a thing.nIn the silence of the city,nSmiles are washed away.nIn the silence of the city,nThere's nothing left to say.nnThe New York City sky line, nWe all admired before. nTall twin towers, nSimply are there no more. nnThe silence of the city, nThe silence of the city, nThe silence of the city, nThe silence of the city, nThe silence of the city, nThe silence of the city, nThe silence of the city, nThe silence...
