T a l l e r   T o w e r s 

Taller towers have fallen

And every house is cooking beans

I analyze these Spanish sayings

Life’s not as bad as it seems

Andrew writes me a story

The mountains look free to me

But every night bombs sound like thunder

A tearing true cacophony 

When we feel deprived think of our friends in Afghanistan

Life’s a treat a tea or a coffee in bulletproof vans

Watch the wind push through fighting kites over people colored sand

Finds a scarf to wrap around her

Sways to music in her head

We can’t say today’s been a party

But we’re better off than dead

So I revise my story

And change the language it’s told in

Desde otro punto de vista

We’re all the same below the skin

When we feel deprived think of our friends in Afghanistan

Life’s a treat a tea or a coffee in bullet proof vans

Watch the wind push through fighting kites over people colored sand

When we feel deprived think of our friends in Afghanistan

Life’s a treat a tea or a coffee in bullet proof vans

Fuel her up we’re fine as we walk on people colored sand.
