Author's Notes: Yay it's been almost a year since I first posted this, and I've broken the 100-review milestone! Thanks so much you guys! It's kind of sad that I've gotten so far because that means the end is coming…only this chapter, Halloween, (possibly) Goodbye Love, What You Own, Your Eyes, and Finale. I'd like to do another like this, so let me know if you have suggestions of musicals that I can use (I was thinking maybe Chicago or Jesus Christ Superstar, since we played the latter for band)!
Without band
The music stalls
The snow falls
The days drag
Without band
The bonds break
The notes shake
School bands play
The classes test
The marching rests
The birds fly
Without band
The earth turns
The marcher yearns
But I die
Without band
Without band
The breeze warms
The sun shines
The clouds move
Without band
The tunes stay
The couples change
The practice stops
The crowds leave
The fields freeze
The lines curve
Without band
The moon glows
The seniors go
But I die
Without band
The world revives
Spirits renew
But I know blue
Only blue
Lonely blue
Within me blue
Without band
Without band
No hand gropes
No ear hears
No drum beats
Without band
No eyes watch
No legs march
No lungs breathe
The mind churns
The heart learns
The tears dry
Without band
Life goes on
But I'm gone
Cause I die
Without band
