    Is it understable?

    Please, correct any of my mistakes!!!




    Everything has gone wrong, You're my friend, I'm your foe,
    How did things come to that, despite the feelings?
    This April we were strong, swore in love to the toe,
    Moscow’s streets, rainy day, there are only leaves!

    Third day of this month is a day of silence,
    The day when ashberry will start to flame,
    Paper promises are on fire,
    It’s the day, when I am giving in…

    I’ll turn the page of calendar,
    And it’s September third again,
    I look at photo in my hand,
    And it’s September third again,

    Just tell me why; Just tell me why,
    We separated at this day,
    Despite we were so serious,
    At the September two?

    Just tell me why; Just tell me why,
    We separated at this day?
    Despite we were so serious,
    At the September two...

    A flock of cranes over sun,
    Here is your daughter, here is my son,
    All of them need our parent's care,

    We have played our love, like a dream with no pain,
    A chilly wind will remain, but this date came again:

    It’s September three - the day of silence,
    The day when ashberry will start to flame,
    Paper promises are on fire,
    It’s the day, when I am giving in…

    I’ll turn the page of calendar,
    And it’s September third again,
    I look at photo in my hand,
    And it’s September third again,

    Just tell me why; Just tell me why,
    We separated at this day,
    Despite we were so serious,
    At the September two...

    Just tell me why; Just tell me why?
    We separated at this day,
    Despite we were so serious,
    At the September two...

    I’ll turn the page of calendar,
    And it’s September third again,
    I look at photo in my hand,
    And it’s September third again,

    Just tell me why; Just tell me why,
    We separated at this day,
    Despite we were so serious,
    At the September two...

    Just tell me why; Just tell me why,
    We separated at this day,
    We were so God damn serious…
    At the September two...




    Any feedback will be pretty much appreciated! Please, correct me!!!

    Is this a poem, or song lyrics? I ask because poetry doesn't typically have a chorus; while they are related, the rules for poetry tend to be stricter than for lyrics.
    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

      Sorry, I just realized this is an interpretation.

      "At the September two" should be "On September second"
      No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

        A song lyrics of course, so I had to marry the lyrics with the music (and it is not an easy task - you have to sacrifice rhyme to lay the lyrics on the notes).

            Is it ok now?

            Just tell me why; Just tell me why,
            We separated at this day,
            While there was no sign of pain,
            One day before this date!

                I'm sorry, I don't see any changes. There are five or six instances of "At the September two" and none of them have been changed to "On September second". Is there an attachment I missed?

                  This is just grammar; if you don't want to change it, we can call it art.

                    I didn't edit the full text. Just gave you quote of the new version of chorus.
                    But, ok! Here is the full edited version (thank you once again):

                              If it is a song what is the melody you will be using? I ask because usually you want the lyrics to fit the melody.
