Eyes Full of Tears
They were born together, rising towards the sky,
for 25 years, the two giants so proud.
No one ever thought the two birds would strike so hard
taking down the two brothers, 20 minutes apart.
Now in our lives there is no peace,
taking down with them our memories.
The big catastrophe I witnessed,
leaving my heart with a lot of emptiness.
People were running everywhere with fear,
leaving the Giants falling in the rear.
The brothers are down, destiny cannot steer,
the world is now stuck with Eyes Full of Tears.
