september

from change of place by jaq dunham

lyrics

all dressed in black and knitted scarves
to keep the heat inside
she grew up near the water
where the tide was always high

bitter bottled anger but
she loved how sweet he seemed
he kept the ocean close for her,
he silenced all the screams

winds of september
winds of change
winds of september
help me rearrange

she wondered whether he could see
her stumbling through the past
she knew he had his hold on her
she hoped it wouldn't last.

the city wasn't bright enough to
keep her from herself
she tried so hard to stay the same she
shattered herself

winds of september
winds of change
winds of september
help me rearrange

driven now to sharpened knives
she wonders what went wrong
when all she wanted was the love
of some forgotten song

winds of september
winds of change
winds of september
help me turn the page
