A part of us died
On that infamous day
Leaders struggled
For the right words to say
Tears flowed
For the loss of life
The pain cut deeper
Than the sharpest knife
Not about "you"
Not about "me"
United We Stand
Was all about "we"
"We'll never forget"
Is what we said
Memorials built
To honor the dead
Remember that day
Remember that time
When we were United
Against one crime
Yes, just one
Against humanity
We were all appalled
From the insanity
Arm in arm
We gathered to pray
Human contact
Was the call of the day
We...the survivors
Must honor the lost
By regaining that unity
No matter the cost
