My October Symphony

[Intro]
Октябрь!

[Verse 1]
So much confusion
When autumn comes around
What to do about October?
How to smile behind a frown?
It's hard to settle down

[Verse 2]
It's so bemusing
Will they cancel the parade?
We marched each October
Now they say we were never even saved
We must be very brave

[Chorus]
Shall I rewrite or revise
My October symphony?
Or as an indication
Change the dedication
From revolution to revelation?

[Verse 3]
So we're all drinking
As leaves fall to the ground
Because we've been thinking
How October's let us down
(Down, down, down, down, down)
Then and now
(Woah)

[Verse 4]
Shall we remember
December instead?
(December)
Or worry about February?
Mourn our war-torn dead
(War-torn dead)
Never seeing red?

[Chorus]
Shall I rewrite or revise
My October symphony?
Or as an indication
Change the dedication
From revolution to revelation?
