The city is burning

Towers set ablaze

Eyes show disbelief

Minds put in a haze

Stuck in my daily routine

When a friend gave me this call...

Quick, turn on the TV!

That's when I saw it all

Giants are burning

Vanish into grey

Leaving the sky-line

It will never be the same

Lost every sense of time

Watchin' it passing me by

What came in by satellite

No religion can justify

That's when the world stopped turning

That's when the world stopped turning

See how far they will go

See all their madness exposed

Say, how can we still stand tall

With all these fears of what will come

That's when the world stopped turning

That's when the world stopped turning

That's when the world stopped turning

The city is burning
