Hole in the Sky (In Memory of September 11th)
Copyright 2002
Words by Rezah Matthews
Music by Rezah & Nick Matthews

There’s a hole in the sky
Where our innocence died
With our family and friends
And our fellow countrymen

As I stand on this ground
I can feel my heart pound
For the freedom we’ve found
Has been threatened
Yet again

September day
Swept away
Crumbling steel
And stolen dreams
Clouds subside
We will rise
Towers of peace and love appear

There’s a hole in our hearts
That I wish could be filled
By our heroes’ brave deeds
And the cause for which they stood

Let us stand on this ground
And remember them now
For the freedom we’ve found
Through their lives
Has been renewed

September day
Let us pray
For them now
And evermore
Clouds subside
We will rise
Towers of peace and love appear

Clouds subside
We will rise
Towers of peace and love appear
