Coyote Ghost - Gone by October

I'm staring into the sun
Waiting 'til I go blind
Searing out my vision
Boiling out my own eyes
I'm tired of seeing this place
All the same things I've already faced
Can't remember the last time I felt
Felt anything at all

In the back of my mind
I remember a time
Something left in my cup
But maybe I made it up

Were you even there back then?
No I don't remember
Lost within my trauma and pain
From a haunted September
There's a story I don't want to tell
'Cause it's already over
The memory's beginning to fade
Should be gone by October

I'm staring into the wind
Don't know where to even begin
There's a narrative somewhere within
But it's all exposition
Feel the grit in the back of my throat
Is it sorrow or a semblance of hope?
It was gone before I even awoke
My pathetic condition

In the back of my mind
I remember a time
Something left in my cup
I think I made it up

Were you even there back then?
No, I don't remember
Lost within my trauma and pain
From a haunted September
There's a story I don't want to tell
'Cause it's already over
The memory's beginning to fade
Should be gone by October

Spit it out of my cotton-dry mouth
Cannot handle the taste
Wipe the sand and the salt from my eyes
Seven years gone to waste

Were you even there back then?
No, I don't remember
Lost within my trauma and pain
From a haunted September
There's a story I don't want to tell
'Cause it's already over
The memory's beginning to fade
Should be gone by October
