Coasters

The type of place you hear about, 
The locals tell you ‘Go check it out.’

The walls trap echos of laughter, 
haunting the outdoor heaters long after;

It could be a break up that leads you there, 
or the desire for a shot or an ice  cold  beer; 

That’s not all that happens when you find it,
conversations become the addictive habit;

Music fuels the vibe at 2 in the morning;
Come last call? You know you’re not leaving;
 
People come together, no longer strangers, 
turn up the rhythm, we are a force of nature; 

A lot like the cars in the parking lot, 
packing standing room only at this spot;

You can’t get this press from a promoter, 
Just one night; you’ll fall hard for Coasters.
