Wake Me Up When September Ends

I spent a long time thinking of an old friend yesterday. Can't even recall why exactly, but as with many things I guess you don't really need an answer. September many moons ago, was easily the worst month, heck week to try and deal with when everything I'd had known came to an end. I guess innocence just doesn't last. But hey that's life.

But it is these moments that make us. Some would say make or break, but ultimately the world is full of broken people it's just how they choose to see things. After all, I always say that the statue of David was just a piece of stone until someone decided to break it.

Today's tune is "Wake me up when September Ends" by Green Day. While often mistaken for a 9/11 tune, it's actually a reference to Billie's dad. I guess we all know the feeling of wanting everything to just be over with.

Summer has come and passed.
The innocent can never last
Wake me up,
When September ends.

Like my father's come to pass, seven years has gone so fast.
Wake me up,
When September ends.

Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars;
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are.

As my memory rests,
But never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up,
When September ends.

Summer has come and passed.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up,
When September ends.

Ring out the bells again.
Like we did when spring began.
Wake me up,
When September ends.

Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars;
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are.

As my memory rest,
But never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up,
When September ends.

Summer has come and passed.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up,
When September ends.

Like 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....

The years really do go by so very, very fast.
