They left expecting ordinary days Instead found they were going on a different sort of journey They left their cups of coffee and unpaid bills Stepped out of their homes and away from their lives And can't return
Instead their souls set free today, In darkness and confusion, In smoke and pain, Soared away from their broken bodies Into a life beyond
Light a candle for their friends and their families. Light a candle for their children... Their wives and mothers... Husbands and fathers... Light a candle for the loss
But their souls were set free today Into a life beyond
The people in real need of light, Of prayers and illumination Set those bombs
