i recently downloaded a song by dakona entitled "September". It's a really nice slow alternative song that you can just really listen to over and over again without realizing what the lyrics are all about. Last night though as i was going home, something struck me about the song...i hated it. In all fairness, it is a great song but all great songs have flaws and this one is it's lyrics...
Just eighteen
When they took his life
Stupid games, on a stupid night
Sorries only go so far
They wont help return a stolen life
Just eighteen
When they took his life
Stupid games, on a stupid night
Sorries only go so far
They wont bring this boy back his life.
Chorus: And I'd love, I'd love, I'd love to see you in September
I'd love, and I'd love, I'd love to see you in September
Empty drinks in an empty bar
Killer tree and a smashed up car
Two of them will tell the tale
one of them will rip our souls apart
Chorus
Blaming you does not help
you think you've learned your lesson
but still you take the bottle from the shelf.
Lifes unfair, son dont swear
I dont know where you are right now
But where it is I hope you're doing well
...They should've named this song October, then everything would've made more sense...
