(Every sence 9-11 we have all been in a state of, "what's gonna happen next and when?" Well it's really been happening all along for sometime now! For real!!)
I'm gonna be honest with you about this terror thing
It's always been here, we all were just living in a phony circus ring
Sure it's much worse now and I really think the cat is really out of the bag now once and for all
It was only due time before we had to take a fall
I remember when the news media did a special about a year before 9-11 on how easy it was to hijack our airplanes
Well guess who was watching through their window panes
The politicians in Washington just sat back for years while the terrorist wacked away at the common man
They didn't wake up until the terrorist started with their can
They finally got the point on just sitting back and letting the evil ones chop us down, ten, twenty, thirty and forty at a time
Now they see this whole evil terrorist thing as a crime

The politicians don't open their eyes and take action until the problem is dumped in their laps. Good honest write.

So true and it is sad that is took an event such as the tragedy of September 11th to open the eyes of so many that danger is everywhere. Well done!
