Make It Stop (September's Children)

rise agains

Bang bang go the coffin nails
Like a breath exhaled
Then gone forever
It seems like just yesterday
How did i miss the red flags raise?

Think back to days we laughed
We braved these bitter storms together
Been rought to his knees he cried
But on his feet he died

What God would damn a heart?
And what God drove us apart?
What God could...

Make it stop
Let this end
Eighteen years pushed to the ledge
It's come to this
A weightless step
On the way down singing
Woah...
Oh...

Bang bang from the closet walls
The schoolhouse halls
The shotguns loaded
Push me and I'll push back
I'm done asking I demand
From a nation under God
I feel it's love like a cattle prod

(Born free) I'm born free but still they hate
(Born me) I'm born me no I can't change
It's always darkest
Just before the dawn
So stay awake with me
Let's prove them wrong

Make it stop
Let this end
Eighteen years pushed to the ledge
It's come to this
A weightless step
On the way down singing
Woah...
Oh...

The cold river washed him away
But how could we forget
The gatherings hold candles
But not their tongues
And too much blood has flown
From the wrists
Of the children shamed
For those they chose to kiss
Who will rise to stop the blood?

We're calling for
Insisting on
A different beat
Yeah, a brand new song

Tyler Clementi (Age 18)
A brand new song
Billy Lucas (Age 15)
Harrison Chase Brown (Age 15)
Cody J. Barker (Age 17)
Seth Walsh (Age 13)

Make it stop
Make this end
This life chose me
I'm not lost in sin
I'm proud I stand
Of who I am
I plan to go on living

Make it stop
Let this end
All these years pushed to the ledge
But proud I stand
Of who I am
I plan to go on living
