Locker Room Serenade

I did a bit of weight lifting and running at my gym today. When I went to change to head home, I was asked by a strange guy in the locker room if I liked this song.

I looked at him with a big "huh?"

It occurred to me he was talking about the Linkin Park song playing over the speakers. "It's okay," I said back, "I think this is the only song I've heard of theirs."

"What is it called?" he asked.

"I have no idea," I responded.

The guy then sang the lyrics to the song to try to find the title in the chorus. While he was doing this, a younger guy walked in.

"I think it's called 'Numb,'" he said.

"I think you're right," I said again and scurried out.

As I was making my way out, I heard him ask the young guy, "Hey, do you like this song?"

Run, I thought... run now...
