                                                    we are creatures of the dusk, unknowing of the subtle dawn

                here you can find me, installed in my element

                                 the night is ours, constantly on to the next one

                                                       we raise bottles to ancient, forgotten tidings 

                                   followed by hear hears and shots to the head 

                                             conversations erupt across layers of silence 

                                                           where the hell have you been? bands, girls

                                    romances eternally lost, intoxication found

                                             music blares, carrying us through with glee

                                                                       smoke spirals, laced with ideas 

                                   as we swing golf clubs at our frustrations  

                                             this is our convention of liberation 

                                                          our show of connection with humanity

                                              they say this might be the best years of our lives

                   in acknowledgment I fill our glasses with elevation

                               hereafter may we never sleep, washing the windows of our world
