Guardian Angels - A Day To Remember

On the 11th of September 
A day we should all remember 
That sad day the Twin Towers came falling down 
Crashing to the ground 

That fateful, infamous day
When Americans passed away 
2,977 unfortunate souls
Went up to become God's Guardian Angels

And let's remember as well 
Those who died from the toxins in the air from hell
Those Brave Police Officers, Firemen, EMTs and brave Citizens 
To rescue people, went back in again and again 

Now, God's Guardian Angels watch over us
As we do dangerous things and such 
Things that must be done, understand?
To save people in danger, as many as we can 

So, let's bow our heads and say a prayer 
For our Heroes who die every day everywhere 
Our Heroes who may not always get recognized 
But are Brave Heroes none the less in our eyes

When you relax after your day is done 
Please remember our Heroic Unlucky Ones
Who are sadly no longer here
To Them, raise a cup, drink a toast of wine, spirits or beer

Remember we must!
Cause when the debris is cleared and cleared the dust
The Terrible War Site is gone 
But the Memories live on...
