[Verse 1]
Stumble into November knowing goddamn well
I can't make nothing close to this tender
Can't fade, can't accelerate
So pitch me into that blender
Regardless where the sun is, I'm my own personal winter
I'm cold, I think I'm cold

[Verse 2]
We thought we were so clever
Just put me on that TV screen, 'cause pop culture's forever
We did it, we do it
If everybody's assuming, I did too cause I'm human
We heard we wasn't performing, we heard it wasn't resuming
And it ended
It fucking ended, just like that
[Refrain]
It's October and I'm tired
[Verse 3]
We tried starting a movement
We tried starting a record label
Our friendships have been ruined
Good brothers in arguments about money, data and music
We created illusions
Then, the fighting went public and frightened all the consumers
And it ended
It just fell the fuck apart
[Refrain]
It's October and I'm tired
[Verse 4]
We tried doing forever
We tried doing what they tried to do
But we tried doing it better
We tried alone and together
Tried until we got tired of losing
Tired of pulling on levers
Tired of tryna balance them ledgers
When there's one rock and one feather
It ended

From a New York Times interview:
“That song was me trying to do what my therapist reminded me to do,” he said. “Write your feelings.” It became the album’s guiding philosophy. “I’d never really done that with my music, not in a directly confrontational way.”
