Before The Sleep
(L: Cimetta; M: Cimetta)

Inspired by the events that took place on 9/11/01 in the World Trade Center.

Falling back and seeing black
Inner feelings gauge
History's old 
The heart becomes bold
Music steals the stage.

Low and behold there was a stronghold
Freedom on display
Frozen numb 
The hurt is done
Whatever stole the day?

The time of return shall capture and burn
The enemy once said
Terrorize 
Chaotic demise
And anything that treads.

Inevitable the warm is now cold
Dusk denied the day
Follow me 
To the unforeseen
Where imagination reigns.

The end is soon near so try not to fear
What the silent air brings forth
In time of thoughts 
When the inside taunts
Outside seizes war.

Looking back in foggy tracks
Still can't find a way
Lost out here 
Was so unclear
We'll never dream the same...
