Sacrificed Sons Lyrics

Walls are closing
Anxiously
Channel surfing
Frantically

Burning City
Smoke and fire
Planes we're certain
Faith inspired

No clues
A complete surprise
Who'll be
Coming home tonight

Heads all turning
Towards the sky
Towers...

    Actually this song is about the WACO indecent and the whole way the leader of the cult saw himself as the Messiah.In the end many died because of this one insane man who brainwashed his followers.

    This is a song about 9/11, and wondering how radical Islam could come to this conclusion. The writer (Labrie, I believe) asks "Who would wish this on our people, and proclaim that His will be done?" Meaning that he can't believe someone would kill thousands of people, and claim it was God's will
