Primitive of my own experiences, I will stand in a sea of bodies, All hot and compressed, But the energy of the people, like heated atoms, And the music, bringing forth the collective feeling, And the simultaneous death-defying appreciation, and nothing but, Will bring chills so intense to the skin under my sleeves that I will shiver in that sea. I’ll feel the ground vibrate And I’ll know every word And I’ll forget everything else And dance like nobody’s watching Because they probably won’t be.
