"A kick from a new life,           \
about to begin                      \
A south facing island                \  same progression as
that floods in the spring            /   first verse
Will call to October new life..-    /
..it will bring."                  /

"Cursing a feeling, caught up by the night     \
Repairing the ruin, reducing the sting          \
That falling October will bring,                 \
Hope that is dreaming, love that is torn,         \  same progression as
Dancing like dust in the eye of the storm,        /  verse 1 & 2
Truth will be lost, when the mocking bird dies   /
October returns with its cold."                 /

"Fooled by a past,                         \
that the world left behind,                 \
Hidden in rocks,                             \  same as all verses before
that are lost to the shore,                  /
Of silent October we choose to ignore."     /
