[Intro: James Webster]
Dear diary
This diary is a record of my life

[Verse 1: Tech Honors]
Across the palm of an October
A hurricane behind the wheel
I drove a nail into a coffin
You wouldn’t let me shut the seal

[Verse 2: Tech Honors]
A miracle or just a sunrise?
How is the glass always half full?
I’ll take the code and recompile
Trying to learn to bend the rules

[Bridge: Tech Honors]
But all the birds have left the station
And all the leaves begin to turn
We cried shoulder touching shoulder
In the palm of October
In the palm of October

[Verse 3: Tech Honors]
I treat my wounds with tea and honey
You sing the songs to help me mend
If we could sleep we’d be The Beatles
I guess it’s better than being dead
In the palm of October
