Lyrics
(Verse 1)
In the haze of neon lights, we stumbled through the door,
To that grunge-filled haven where the misfits all adore.
With White Zombie blasting, and Rage Against the Machine,
We danced like madmen in our drunken dream.
(Pre-Chorus)
Then amidst the chaos, a wild thought took flight,
To shave our heads, in the dead of night.
I turned to my buddy, with a devilish grin,
Said, "Let's do something crazy, let's let the madness in."
(Chorus)
But his long hair flowed, like a rebel's crown,
He thought I'd lost it, as the shots went down.
But after a few more, he finally agreed,
To join in the madness, and fulfill our heed.
(Verse 2)
Back at home, with the world spinning fast,
I spilled my secret to my girl, hoping it would last.
But she shook her head, said "Don't be a fool,
Your job, your image, don't play by the rules."
(Pre-Chorus)
My boss, a woman of authority and might,
Echoed the words, said it wasn't right.
So I swallowed my pride, let conformity win,
And bid farewell to the madness within.
(Chorus)
But a few days later, a knock at my door,
And there stood my friend, his head now bare to the core.
I couldn't believe it, I laughed till I cried,
At the sight of his boldness, his rebellious stride.
(Bridge)
He shrugged and grinned, said "I had to see it through,
Sometimes you gotta break the mold, do what you gotta do."
And though I was torn between laughter and shame,
I couldn't deny, we'd never be the same.
(Chorus)
So here's to the nights, in that grunge-filled dive,
Where we danced and we laughed, feeling so alive.
And though we may stumble, and sometimes we fall,
The memories we made, will forever stand tall.
