suzanne vega – it hit home lyrics
[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
[chorus]
it hit home
it still does
it hits home
[verse 3]
people when they’re hungry become crazy
if it’s a baby or a nation we discuss
anger turns to action turns to danger
we get mean and feel that living isn’t worth much
it’s either them or us
[chorus]
it hit home
it still does
it hits home
[bridge]
i am no great patriot
i never wear the flag
and i 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
[chorus]
it hit home
it still does
it hits home
