Nights Like These

Bass pounding
Rhythms screeching
Crowd moving
Hair flailing

Screams echo from the speakers
I see you beside me
Shoving and moving
Scratching your vocal chords
To growl out words

You’re insane
You’re mad
Gritty
And amazing

I don’t need to be him
I have what I want
He’ll never see you in ecstasy
As so
Not tonight
Not ever

He won’t see your eyes light up
To see the inner you
To see the one that can do anything
She damn well pleases

I’ve always been winning
I’ve won
I always will

You’ll never see her go mad
In a crowd
That tower her
Who push her back
And headbang with her

You’ll miss her at her best
At her happiest
On nights like these
The best nights of our lives.
