lyrics

September
A reminder
Of moments lost
Bright sunlight
Replaced with frost

I’m anxious
To face this
The coming night
Feels so long
It feels so wrong to hide away
I can’t hide no more

The summer is gone too fast and now the longest days are over
I waited all year for the sun to come down on my shoulders
Can’t face the cold, can’t make it no, another dark and lonely winter

The seasons
Aren’t even
The hard ones last
The good ones
So quickly pass

The planet
She’s had it
And so have I
Can’t make it
Way too long to hide away
I can’t hide no more

The summer is gone too fast and now the longest days are over
I waited all year for the sun to come down on my shoulders
Can’t face the cold, can’t make it no, another dark and lonely winter
