Those Nights

I've been thinking about my friends lately. They've been there for me, so I think as substantial amount of thought is fitting. Each of them have so much crap in their lives, and yet they take the time to comfort me about my silly, trivial problems. Maybe it's that when I'm with them, I forget. And that's good, because everyone needs to forget every once in a while. And maybe it's knowing that I'm not alone, and that things could be so much worse.

My friend made me a cd with all of Skillet's Comatose songs, and I'd listen to it whenever I was rediculously angry. But I usually skipped over song #7, Those Nights, because I decided from the beginning of the song that it wasn't angry enough. NEVER judge a song by it's intro. I listened to it today, and I was so moved my chest hurt. Don't get me wrong, it's not the most moving song in the world. It's the people in my life who make it mean so much. Maybe a lot of people say that about this song. I'm not sure. It doesn't really matter, I suppose.

It's not the best video in the world, but it'll do. Here are the lyrics

Those Nights

I remember when we used to laugh
about nothing at all
It was better than going mad
From trying to solve all the problems we're going through
Forget 'em all
Cause on those nights we would stand and never fall
Together we faced it all

Remember when we'd
Stay up late and we'd talk all night
In the dark room lit by the TV light
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
We'd listen to the radio play all night
Didn't want to go home to another fight
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive

I remember when we used to drive anywhere but here
As long as we'd forget our lives
We were so young and confused
That we didn't know to laugh or cry
Those nights were ours
They will live and never die
Together we'd stand forever

Remember when we'd
Stay up late and we'd talk all night
In the dark room lit by the TV light
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
We'd listen to the radio play all night
Didn't want to go home to another fight
Through all the hard times in my life
Those night kept me alive

Those nights belong to us
There's nothing wrong with us
Those nights belong to us

I remember when we used to laugh
And now i wish those nights would last

Stay up late and we'd talk all night
In the dark room lit by the TV light
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
We'd listen to the radio play all night
Didn't want to go home to another fight
Through all the hard times in my life
Those night kept me alive

Stay up late and we'd talk all night
In the dark room lit by the TV light
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
We'd listen to the radio play all night
Didn't want to go home to another fight
Through all the hard times in my life
Those night kept me alive

Those nights belong to us
There's nothing wrong
