Sleeping Through September
Remember us before the war
Remember what we were fighting for
I can't remember how I started it
I only know I got away with it
The shades are drawn our flags are up
I never could admit I'd had enough
I felt the impact all through my brain
It all went dark and then I knew that we'd changed
The city streets all turn to dust
I hear the bell and get back up
The war is waging inside my head
I look for mercy in what you said
The city streets all turn to dust
I hear the bell and get back up
It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter
You'll find your strength in the first and third wind
Sleeping Through September
Remember us before the war
Remember what we were fighting for
I can't remember how I started it
I only know I got away with it
The lights came on I couldn't see
The others who had surrounded me
And then the winds began to change
I didn't feel so covered in shame
The city streets all turn to dust
I hear the bell and get back up
The war is waging inside my head
I look for mercy in what you said
The city streets all turn to dust
I hear the bell and get back up
It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter
You'll find your strength in the first and third wind
Sleeping Through September
It doesn't matter
(Hear the trumpets start to sound when all is said and done)
