There we were, side by side With our arms around each other Wearing the 1am madness Of flushed cheeks And tired feet, Weary hands And tainted breaths That can only come From fiery drinks And fancy words That we danced with in the streets Skipping around In Random Beats Illuminating the darkness Under the faint glow Of faraway street lamps With our stories in the sun And dares in the dark Together we while the worries away And never wish For the hours to hurry and say That we've got to get up and leave And put all those behind us Because there lies an honesty In the tales told at dawn That is elusive during the day When there is more light As we speak in riddles Masked in mirthless giggles So we raise our glasses - In the face of this madness To the wobbling of knees And falling face flat As we collapse in heaps of uncertainty That beholds the realm Of storied infinity.
