I'm looking up at a grey sky
I'm standing over a grey sea
My grey eyes are glazing over
Picturing sights I'll never see
In another place
A mountain range away
Someone is singing a song for September
In a grey city
I keep to the walls
I keep my head down
I don't want to take it all in
Explosions in the distance
The prison of routine
Another promise on the radio
That this will be the final spring
In another place
Half a world away
Someone is singing a song for September
And if I try
If I keep still
There's an echo of melody I might remember
