Performed by Ryan Bloomquist - August, 2013

Music by Avi Amon (piano)
Words by Noami Matlow

This song was inspired by how the media and individuals grapple with commemorating and remembering the events of September 11, 2001. In this song we hope to convey the confusion and uncertainty that is always an element in the act of remembrance.

Lyrics:

"Won't you step back?" she asked,
"back from the edge of infinity,
back from a cruel winter's irony,
back from the ledge of a rifted sea?

"We'll be alright," she said,
"we've seen the light in the corridor,
we've seen our lives in some holy war,
we've seen the might of a wretched storm.

"Calling all child's hearts:
your suns have set in stone.
But our souls are still sacred here -
we're not alone on this spinning sphere.

"And we're not any older,
just a little bit sorry, that's all."
