September Song

A celebration to swell the system Mass casualties, earth's war of attrition A slate-colored moment in an amber time Nothing to do but move the needle down the line Move it down the line Ride the plague winds back to where we were before Moving through the night, illuminate the killing floor Divided here together To sing a deadly song Divided here together To sing a deadly song September A confrontation over existence Past tragedies creating resistance Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more Where poison is the balm and endless dead ignored The dead ignored The lights upon the blacktop Raise a toast of arsenic Fill the coffers, roll the dice Amusements for the sick Divided here together To sing a deadly song Divided here together To sing a deadly song September We sing a deadly song Divided here together We sing a deadly song September We're broken in half, mindset split Stitched together This game of Russian Roulette One in the chamber, head full of doubt More food for the crows who ride it out We'll ride it out Divided here together Breathing here together Divided here together Bleeding here together September
