Today’s song has no reason or rhyme… well, it has rhyme, but not in the sense that I picked it for any particular reason. This is Wake Me Up When September Ends from Green Day’s American Idiot album.
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September endsLike my father’s come to pass
Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September endsHere comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we areAs my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September endsSummer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September endsRing out the bells again
Like we did when Spring began
Wake me up when September endsHere comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we areAs my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September endsSummer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September endsLike my father’s come to pass
Twenty years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
