Deerfields is for Lovers

Day and night, the music blares proud

If you use your voice well, there's no need to shout

Hearing is difficult, the beats are loud

But the rocks by the river spell it out



Self-aware, unwilling to deny

Free, radical self-expression

In our society, how the rules apply

Is left to your discretion



Pairs of bare, toughened feet

Pounding prints into the ground

Following the steady beat

All united by the sound



We leave no physical trace,

These feet who come to dance

A single body, more than one face

United by the power of trance



Sunday morning comes like the end of a dream

I clutch you like a pillow, clinging

The fog is my mind's engine's last bit of steam

But my entire being is singing
