[Verse 1]
No one admits they ever cry in public
Lately we all do because we must
We do because a man stands
At the bottom of a building
Looking for his brother's body in the dust
[Chorus]
It hit home
It still does
It hits home
[Verse 2]
It makes me feel a pain within my person
Like the breaking of a heart or of a bone
To think about that day and to imagine
Every moment of my neighbors
In that devastated place close to my own
[Chorus]
It hit home
It still does
It hits home
[Bridge]
I am no great patriot
I never wear the flag
And I can only sing the songs that I'm supposed to in a crowd
But if I travel to Chicago or just take the train downtown
I see the grace that's under pressure
It's what I report out loud
No one admits they ever cry in public
Lately we all do because we must
We do because a man stands
At the bottom of a building
Looking for his brother's body in the dust
[Chorus]
It hit home
It still does
It hits home
[Verse 2]
It makes me feel a pain within my person
Like the breaking of a heart or of a bone
To think about that day and to imagine
Every moment of my neighbors
In that devastated place close to my own
[Chorus]
It hit home
It still does
It hits home
[Bridge]
I am no great patriot
I never wear the flag
And I can only sing the songs that I'm supposed to in a crowd
But if I travel to Chicago or just take the train downtown
I see the grace that's under pressure
It's what I report out loud
