Lucky

10:03 on a Tuesday morning 
in the fall of an American dream 
a man is doing what he knows is right 
on flight 93 


Loved his mom and he loved his dad 
loved his home and he loved his man 
but on that bloody Tuesday morning 
he died and American 


[chorus]
Now you cannot change this 
You can't erase this 
You can't pretend this is not the truth 


Even though he could not marry 
Or teach your children in our schools 
Because who he wants to love 
Is breaking your God's rules 


He stood up on a Tuesday Morning 
In the terror he was brave 
And he made his choice and without a doubt 
A hundred lives he must have saved 


[chorus]


And the things you might take for granted 
Your inalienable rights 
Some might choose to deny him 
Even though he gave his life 


Can you live with yourself in the land of the free 
And make him less of a hero than the other three 
Well it might begin to change ya 
In a field in Pennsylvania 


[chorus]


Stand up America 
Hear the bell now as it tolls 
Wake up America 
It's Tuesday Morning 
Let's roll 


[chorus]
