Anything can happen Quote by Enter Shikari
“His eyes are locked on her Her eyes are fixed elsewhere He's confident, but he's not aware She doesn't care Their only connection is the silence they both grasp He's lost control But she's not aware, of his stare Everything seems to intimidate him, With the strobe lights flashing, her body's jolting But cracking, as his eyes, Split in two, if only she knew If only she knew”
