The Day The Flags Fall On the day the smoke rises higher then the buildings When the people scream, and the flags fall to the ground Tell all the people to come together and kneel where they first began.
The people who are gone are surrounded by beauty Brighter then the flames that won’t burn out And the Light of their life will not fade like the smoke.
The ones who came to help, look just like your heart, mom They gave themselves to give others a chance. That day will help the people see that color doesn’t matter The outside is only a nice wrapping. It’s the house for the soul and that’s what really matters.
The gold will fade and silver
won’t clatter as loud, When the people lose the shiny stuff, they will look inside their hearts
Then the people will come back
together again
Until the night can be quiet again and the people not afraid The men will take the stars from the sky and wear them on their clothes. The moms may cry, the kids may be sad, but only for a time The gold hearts will shine as the black ones fade away.
When the flags fall to the ground, the country will sing again
They will pray again and sing
good songs The sick will live like I did mom, in a home not a steel place
And the world will be filled
with beautiful heart people
So, don’t worry, a heart lives forever and ever You are my hero, just like the others who help And heart heroes last forever mom, Heart heroes last forever |
