lyrics

September... Soaring winds (and hulking clouds)
Like grey-haired travelers, the storms return
To take some rest
On these vast plains
Before they're moving on.

September... A kaleidoscope of days
Filled with unanswered and unanswerable questions,
With every coming day they're numbered on, and
Far beyond all comprehension.

September! Prophecies unheeded go -
But why and how have we gone that far?
And what resentment is growing now,
Spreadin’ out its vines within our hearts?

What shall I do when they are coming here? -
The monsters from the fairy tales we used to scare
Our children with
- become too real
And self-styled slaves decry the freedom as a myth
And self-styled martyrs worship Anguish, Woe and Fear;

As hypocrites keep juggling truths and lies
There comes the voice out from nowhere, which cries:
Is this September of our time?
Is it the twilight of our history?
Will we be able to keep the daemons from breaking free?

I've never thought I'd ever live to see
How that putrid undercurrent permeates us all,
Transforming human-beings into the craving beasts,
And I cannot be sure I'm not among their lot.

September... Soaring winds (and hulking clouds)
And cooler air and colder rains throughout.
And where one man holds back his thrashing wrath
The crowd will reap the crops that they had sowed.

Still, when the tribulations are on low tide
With waning hope I look up to the skies - and dream
That with the stormclouds God returns
To mend our wounds and to redeem our wrongs.

And though the Heaven's silent still,
I feel someone's there, and He is taking heed
He is taking heed...
