Story Behind The Song
Standing at the window of a high rise building, I was contemplating what the victims that were forced to jump off of the trade towers may have had going through their heads before their tragic end.

Lyrics
Absolutely, positively, there's no doubt in my mind
It's like a landslide crashing down
On me at the speed of light
And who is to blame for all of this shame on you
I want this to change but I was on the ninth floor looking down
And they all look like ants to me
I'm a brother, I'm a father
I'm your neighbor's best friend
Make a phone call, say good bye
Roll the credits cause it's the end
And who is to blame for all of this shame on you
I want this to change but I was on the ninth floor looking down
And they all look like ants to me
Take a nose dive, face first into this concrete infinity
And they all look like ants to me
Absolutely, positively, who I am becomes who was I
It's like a landslide, piles of stone of the life I've left behind
On the ninth floor, looking down and they all look like ants to me
Take a nose dive face first into this concrete infinity
And who is to blame for all this shame on you
I want this to change but I was
On the ninth floor, looking down and they all look like ants to me
Take a nose dive face first into this concrete infinity
And they all look like ants to me
Yes they all look like ants to me
