I know that some of you will not like this post, but I want you to know that I posted it without wanting to hurt people's feelings.
Yesterday I was reading an article about the attacks of 9/11, like anyone else, I've felt very bad about it. Afterward I put on "Never Let Me Down" and reading the lyrics along with the cd, some phrases had a whole new meaning for me.
Before you think I'm into Nostradamus and stuff: absolutely not! But I've formed a text consisting of verses and pieces of the NLMD album and maybe then you will understand what I mean.
This city's all clean and waiting I don't mean to wait too long But this joint can't get much higher
Rockets shooting up into space Buildings they rise to the skies
Rise buildings Rise to the sky
You've arrived in the land of a thousand different names And the fabulous sons have crashed their planes in flames Rocket on thru the sky Too much smoke, air conditioning gone Now tomorrow's back claiming redemption is on your heels
New York's in flames
Stay low on the ground, fire can drive you, savage and afraid
It's now the dead speak to the living Nothing left here but a raging blaze
First thing she learns is she's a citizen, some things they turn out right When you're under the USA
Suddenly there's angels everywhere Angels in a ton of sound Bang Bang you all Angels
a macabre shrine of remains it had many layers Like floors in a building When the breeze blew thru this construction It produced sounds of wailing, crying
No hope heroes cover the page with depts in hell And fingers in blood Poor little bodies all covered in scabs threw it all away Another life in the grave Another life in the grave
God doesn't care if I'm good
