Why not
Lose our minds tonight,
You think
Why not
Just let go
of the day
Take the night
Erase the consequences of the morning
It won't matter
What we do
Where we go
Who we dance with
How we get there
Why we do this
Just feel the music
Moving the floor
Pumping your blood
Hear the people
Screaming along
Moving their bodies
In an ongoing crush
Trying to get high on life
Get away from Earth, if only
For the moment
Fingers crossed for the whole night
Taste the feeling of freedom
Of flight
Of sweat and the night life
Disproving day is needed to live
these things that seem so important when the sun rises:
Money
Jobs
Responsibility
Melt away with the sun
And when the sunset's completely
Gone, and the black canvas
Is rolled out
Perforated by millions of tiny stagelights
Illuminating the glory of seven billion lives
Lived all at once
Together
And shared only
With the unprovable
And irresistible night.
