Black September Lyrics - Singles - Dead Moon

The angry moon of august hung 

As I wrapped myself in you 

The winds of war had cut into 

As I tried to fight the truth 

And in that time I lost my youth 

And now I bear the scars 

With black september comin' on 

You know you won't get far 

Destruction lay before my eyes 

In a generation beat 

We seemed to be too high to see 

What was dying in the street 

We thought we'd change the world back then 

Without becoming hard 

With black september comin' on 

You know you won't get far 

We thought back then we'd be there now 

How could I know what waits for me 

How could I be so cruel 

To know the best of days gone by 

And the something I would lose 

I watch the tides of summer fade 

In memories 'neath the dark 

With black september comin' on 

You know you won't get far
