	Story Behind the Song This is a song I wrote after and about the events of September 11th, and I'd say it's pretty self-explanatory, kind of just about dealing with such an event from the perspective of the average American trying to come to grips with it all. It was recorded using Cool Edit Pro software and a (very crappy) microphone. I performed the song live with my band McWhitey in a different arrangement, with an electric guitar playing different parts. Lyrics This world is like a hollow man Awaiting his mortal fate This life is but a fragile game With no time left to celebrate I've little left to give If I really wanna live, I'll try... Chorus: What this world hasn't taught you can't be learned What this life will leave you is feeling burned I will not stand idly by As cities fall and people die Together we can try To fight to unify We are One. We are and always have been one. Ambition is a soulless need Spurred on by madness Greed is a principal desire Fulfilled by willingness I'm standing here alone And I wanna feel at home, in this life... CHORUS Do opposites attract as good and evil react Try simplifying that... CHORUS
