    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this line down about an hour after I became aware of the events of 9/11. This is how I felt at that time.

    Lyrics
    I was born an hour ago
    When the walls of my home began to fall down
    There’s a room I would go to be alone
    But I can’t go
    As of an hour ago

    I was born an hour ago
    When smoke from the east began to blow around
    There’s a place I would go to where my sorrows drowned
    But I can’t go
    As of an hour ago

    Don’t even try to explain - the pundits wonder
    How we’ll all feel when the day is done

    The devil is the one to blame - the religions wonder
    Who will still have faith when the day is done

    I was born an hour ago
    I’ve got a helmet instead of diapers
    And a gas mask for a bow
    My crib is in danger so my stroller’s in tow
    But I can’t go
    All as of an hour ago

    Don’t even try to explain - the pundits wonder
    How we’ll all feel when the day is done

    The devil is the one to blame - the religions wonder
    Who will still have faith when the day is done
