Sad song to feel as if I can relate,
Knowing the meaning has nothing to do with my own reality,
I just want the sound.
Powerful and rushing through my head,
Making my own problems less and the world fade away.
Eyes closed, suddenly the beat of the song is making the world turn.
Feet tapping, heart steady,
And everything is okay…for these three and a half minutes.
