Afternoon Matinee: Protest - Wake Me Up When September Ends

Performed by Green Day

Summer has come and passed, the innocent can never last

Wake me up when September ends

Like my father's come to pass, seven years has gone so fast

Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again, falling from the stars

Drenched in my pain again, becoming who we are

As my memory rests, but never forgets what I lost

Wake me up when September ends

Summer has come and passed, the innocent can never last

Wake me up when September ends

Ring out the bells again, like we did when spring began

Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again, falling from the stars

Drenched in my pain again, becoming who we are

As my memory rests, but never forgets what I lost

Wake me up when September ends

Summer has come and passed, the innocent can never last

Wake me up when September ends

Like my father's come to pass, twenty years has gone so fast

Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again, falling from the stars

Drenched in my pain again, becoming who we are

As my memory rests, but never forgets what I lost

Wake me up when September ends

Wake me up when September ends

Wake me up when September ends
