Lyrics written by Christian Elias on October 18, 2001.
 

Dedicated to every victim of September 11, 2001.

They came in like a thief in the night

Within a moment they destroyed everything that was right

They took so much from us and showed no care

When they came it was without warning and unfair

Had we only known to be prepared

I would have done anything just to be there

Stand your ground

You never know when something bad will come around

Stand your ground

Be tough and never will to fall down

The pain was horrifying that day to see the fear on people's faces

Uncertain if it would happen again in other places

But help was never too far away to salvage a broken heart

Because it has always been there right from the start

Stand your ground

You never know when something bad will come around

Stand your ground

Be tough and never will to fall down

Don't let it worry you because we've been attacked

This isn't the end, America will strike back

What's ours is ours and what's theirs is theirs

We shall hunt down those responsible and show them we care
