Barstool Blues – On That Day

September 11, 2010 By Andre Archimbaud

Spirals spinning
No side winning
There’s no easy way to recollect
How the world will be effected

On that day
Trees fell down in the way
Falling of a mighty oak
Times two

On that day
The hearts sank
No one sang
Times two

Save the prayer
For the life of the liars
It’s for them whom
The funeral pires.

The world has kept on spinning
Sinners kept on sinning
Greedy kept on grinning
And the swimmers kept on swimming.

Silence didn’t win the day
Love has more to say
So get out of the way
Let it all come what may

May the scars all teach you
That the stars still hold
All the promise of
What was before…just without them.

On that day the dust was thick
The lines were quick
To the base and place
Where we all live

On that day
Trees fell down in the way
Falling of a mighty oak
Times two

On that day
The hearts sank
No one sang
Times two
