What was the name she gave herself?

 They called her September.

She wasn't known for much except

 Her legs and her temper.

He had enough money to get a date back in his place

She kept the lights low to avoid his face

He grabbed her arm a little too hard

 He was rough when she pulled away

She started running for the stairs

 He thought it was all a game

She'd rather die than be abused again

She broke his grip high now on adrenaline

She pulled a pistol from her purse,

 Screamed the party was over.

Not the brightest man in the world

 He reached for the revolver

She cocked the handle back and put one into his chest

And watched him fall down the stairs to his final rest

She thought it best,

She turned off all the lights and stereo

She sat in the morning breeze and watched the sun glow on the city below

  ->->*->*...

She sang, "La-la-la...."

What was the name she gave herself

 They called her September.
