We'll just take it each hour one at a time.
It's a pretty good night for a drive,
So dry up those eyes, dry up those eyes.

Songs that we heard as our guards came down.
Like in the summertime when we first met,
I'll never forget, and don't you forget,
These nights are still ours."

"Honey we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes.
Do the jump back Jack stop and slide to the right.
Never break their hearts,
Never make them cry, so come on.
Strike up the band with a song that everybody knows.
If I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul.
I'm not the one who hates being alone,
So come on."
-The Gaslight Anthem

It's a deep dark night, I hear you, I been there"

Something as simple as rock ‘n’ roll would save us all?"

"I still believe in the saints
In Jerry Lee and Johnny, and all the greats
I still believe in the sound
That has the power to raise a temple, and tear it down
I still believe in the need
For guitars and drums and desperate poetry
I still believe that everyone
Can find a song for every time they’ve lost, and every time they’ve won
So just remember folks we’re not just saving lives, we’re saving souls and we’re having fun."
-Frank Turner

"I'm strong and fearless only 'cause I got rock 'n' roll"

Then the music's gotta be loud
For when the music hits I feel no pain at all"
