Analysis of United we stand...
Red, the bloodshed that pained us all
Death and destruction mayhem brought
White holds the innocent, we all bare this wound
We thought we were safe at work that day
Blue for the sky that shown in the sky
Our chins lifted high to watch in fright
What once was day, now seemed like night
