Excuse the shoddy performance and production. It adds character.

lyrics

September Sun, how hot can it be?
There's glare in my eyes and my breath is heavy
I'm trying to rest but I just can't sleep
And it feels like a line's been crossed

The calendar runs but we're still not wise
The clouds float backwards in these retrograde skies
And I'm looking around for a friend by my side
But I guess they got carried away

It feels like fun but this ain't no game
You claim fairplay but your smirk betrays
That hidden in the apple is a razorblade
And you think that we haven't seen

So I'm twiddling my thumbs wondering what I should say
And if speaking at all makes me stupid or brave?
Coz it's the loneliest voice that's considered insane
But I can't be the only one

No I can't be the only one

There's sweat on my lip
There's a rash on my skin
There's people being broken
Like lollipop sticks
But you're fanning yourself
You're sat in the shade
Saying "Take a good look
At these sandcastles I made"
Coz it's the Indian Summer
It's the year gone wrong
It's a deal done dirty
Lasting way too long
It's the blistered burn
In September sun
It's red and it's raw
And it never seems to end

September sun
I've had enough
