Dream Theater – Sacrificed Sons lyrics

[Left: This has all the appearances of an extraordinarily well coordinated and
Devastating terrorist attack-

Right: -terrorism against our nation will not stand; the government
Will hunt down those responsible-

Left: -terrorism means striking terror into the hearts of people, that has been
Accomplished-

Right: -looking in awe, amazement, shock and grief and anger at what they
Were seeing in front of them-

Middle: There has just been a huge explosion... You can see, uh, a billowing smoke
Rising, there was a cascade of sparks and fire and we see this extraordinarily big,
Frightening scene behind us-

Left: -there is panic on the streets, there are people screaming and running-

Right: Good lord, there are no words.

Left: -3000 Palestinians [unintelligible] chanting "God is good"-

Right: -This is just a horrific scene and a horrific moment, but just look
At that. That is about as frightening a scene as you will ever see.

Left: But there are times in your life that are life changing, where your
Life can never be the same and this appears certainly to be one of them.]

Walls are closing
Anxiously
Channel surfing
Frantically

Burning City
Smoke and fire
Planes we're certain
Faith inspired

No clues
A complete surprise
Who'll be
Coming home tonight

Heads all turning
Towards the sky
Towers crumble
Heroes die

Who would wish this
On our people
And proclaim
That His will be done
Scriptures they heed have misled them
All praise their Sacrificed sons
All praise their Sacrificed sons

[Instrumental Break]

Teach them
What to think and feel
Your ways
So enlightening

Words they preach
I can't relate
If God's true Love
Are acts of Hate

Who would wish this
On our people
And proclaim
That His will be done
Scriptures they heed have misled them
All praise their Sacrificed sons
All praise their Sacrificed sons

God on high
Our mistake
Will mankind be extinct
There's no time
Time to waste
Who serves the truth
For Heaven's sake
