Analysis of The Tuesday from Hell
Another dark story in the history of man,
I write it down as best as I can
This is my way of honoring those who died,
all those hurt the day the whole world cried
It started as a normal day
All hell broke lose along the way
A thunderous crash
A city cowered in ash
Two great towers suddenly lost
Those trapped inside paid the highest cost
Three more explosions shakes the nation under attack
The shock waves spread over a world gone black
People everywhere cries in confusion
Who’s behind this terrible intrusion?
So many innocents are left in pain
The memory will long remain
Never will we forget the day from hell
If the world will ever heal no one can tell
