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
