standing there in euphoria
my body swaying to the beat of the music

drums so powerful i can feel the beat of the music in my veins
reaching into my soul, feeling every word in every cell of my body

- i close my eyes

and i feel my heart sigh -

your empathy floating into the crowd
dancing through the wind

feelings so raw & real
reverberating throughout the stadium

the artists' voices crack;
emotion overcomes the bravado of performance

- goosebumps rise

this is what it's like to feel alive -
