Can You Free Me?

Save Me

I immediately know what song is being played. I smile and my heart sinks when I hear the lyrics.

"Conforming on a Monday. To often and too cold. And you aren't even listening, 'cause you are just...too old to feel an earthquake! Too cool to even care! But you aren't even listening, so why should I?"

Everyone started cheering, and I could hear Adam behind his mask going, "you are...a natural disaster. And I've wanted you too much. And now I'm gonna lose!"

Then I sang, "I've wanted you too much! And now I've gotta choose!"

Adam laughed and pointed at me with passion. "You're the cause of all this! And I'm sick of trying to please you!"

I put my hands around Adam's neck and sang, "and you're gonna feel my emotions coming. Because you're the world!"

I gasped afterward, for the next part was my favorite part of the song. Matt played his guitar as always, making things look easy as they ever could be, then he stops and looks at the crowd with those seductive eyes and smiles for an instant. I know he knows what he's doing to us. I don't know why, but it upset me just a little, because I don't like being teased of any sort. Anyway, then Matt started singing.

"Like a broken dam you're empty, and all that's left are the sticks and stones. That were built by other people, and it really shows. And you aren't even listening, 'cause you are just...too old to feel an earthquake! Too cool to even care! But you aren't even listening, so why should I?"

It was music to my ears, once again, hearing everybody's voice sing along with the band. "You are a natural disaster. And I've wanted you too much. And now I'm gonna lose! I've wanted you too much! And now I've gotta choose! You're the cause of all this! And I'm sick of trying to please you! Yeah! And you're gonna feel my emotions coming. Because you're the world!"

In that instant, lights started flashing and lasers were shot from one side of the arena to the other, and the sound of Matt's guitar filled the air. "Oh my gosh..." I whispered. Then Dom came in with steady drums; not too exciting...yet. They played for a bit, then came crashing symbols and Chris came in. All three played perfectly; even better than perfect while they were live. I almost cried but I didn't.

Adam and I cheered our bums off, and we soon heard the sound of a familiar static guitar. I started screaming, and ballistically shaking Adam by his shoulders, and I could hear him laughing from under his mask.

"Take that thing off, so I can see your face, Adam." He took it off and plopped it on top of his head, as Matt started the guitar riff.

We all -and I mean ALL- started screaming. We were jumping up and down to the beat of the music and clapping, and just being the fans we are. I was fangirling to the point of extremeness, and Adam started laughing at me.

Then Matt started singing, "I've exposed your lies, Baby. The underneath no big surprise. Now it's time for changing and cleansing everything, to forget your love!"

When the guilted played a few notes, pretty much cuing us, I started crying. I'd always wanted to be one of these people, and here I am. We all started jumping higher and wilder, and we sang, "AND MY PLUG IN BABY! CRUCIFIES MY ENEMIES, WHEN I'M TIRED OF GIVIN'! WHOAH! MY PLUG IN BABY! IN UNBROKEN VIRGIN REALITIES, IS TIRED OF LIVIN'!"

Then Matt hit his usual, but unusual falsetto, and it made me scream. "Don't confuse, baby you're gonna lose your own game. Change me, we're placing envying to forget your love!"

Adam took my hand and raised as we all sang again. "AND MY PLUG IN BABY! CRUCIFIES MY ENEMIES, WHEN I'M TIRED OF GIVIN'!"

Then Matt sang louder, "WHOAH! MY PLU-HAHAHAHA!" I had never laughed harder than that night in t entire life. Matthew Bellamy. The perfection of life, burst out in complete laughter for some unknown reason. And it was hilarious to see. When he regained composure, he kept singing, "IN UNBWOKEN VIRGIN REALITIES, IS TIRED OF LIVIN'! OHHH!"
