August Lyrics

Cover art for August lyrics by Warrel Dane

I think this is about someone dying....possibly his mother.

In a recorded interview, he says it is about his fantasy goth girl wearing leather and stuff....I had to laugh when I saw that. Considering his obvious emotions when describing the song "Brother" I think he made up this explaination because the real meaning is too painful to repeat.

Possibly, or perhaps his lover. Anyway it is a beautiful yet sad song. Whenever I listened to this song, it makes me feel so down, a feeling of a love long gone.

You gotta be careful with Dane. I mean, he always keep trolling people on interviews saying that some songs mean something entirely different that what they really mean. Do you remember he saying things about Timmy Leary?

I also think this song is about some dead woman. Now that you said, it could really be his mother... Awesome album btw
