Give me a second I I need to get my story straight My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the empire state my lover she's waiting for me just across the bar My seats been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar and I know I gave it to you months ago I know you're trying to forget but between the drinks and subtle things the holes in my apologies you know I'm trying hard to take it back so if by the time the bar closes and you feel like falling down I'll carry you home Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter than the sun Tonight we are young so let's set the world on fire we can burn brighter than the sun And I know that I'm not all that you got I guess that I I just thought maybe we could find a ways to fall apart But our friends in back So let's raise a toast Cause I found someone to carry me home Tonight We are young So let's the set the world on fire we can burn brighter than the sun Tonight We are young so let's set the world on fire we can burn brighter than the sun Carry me home tonight Just carry me home tonight Carry me home tonight Just carry me home tonight The moon is on my side I have no reason to run So will someone come and carry me home tonight The angels never arrived but I can hear the choir so will someone come and carry me home Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire we can burn brighter than the sun Tonight We are young so let's set the world on fire we can burn brighter than the sun So if by the time the bar closes and you feel like falling down I'll carry you home tonight
I'm standing in Brooklyn just waiting for something to happen I can't help but look thinking that everyone doesn't get it
To my left is a window, where did I go? My reflection just blends in, (?) And bad ideas, but ideas nonetheless and so
I put one foot in front of the other one I don't need a new love or a new life Just a better place to die
I put one foot in front of the other one I don't need a new love or a new life Just a better place to die
I happened to stumble upon a chapel last night And I can't help but back up when I think of what happens inside
I got friends locked in boxes, that's no way to live What you're calling a sin, isn't up to them After all, after all I thought we were all your children
But I will die for my own sins, thanks a lot We'll rise up ourselves, thanks for nothing at all So up off the ground, our forefathers are nothing but dust now
I put one foot in front of the other one I don't need a new love or a new life Just a better place to die
I put one foot in front of the other one I don't need a new love or a new life Just a better place to die
Maybe I should learn to shut my mouth I am over 25 And I can't make a name for myself Some nights I break down and cry I'm lucky that my father's still alive He's been fighting all his life And if this I've ever known Maybe his soul live on forever In my song
La-di-da da da da
I put one foot in front of the other one I don't need a new love or a new life Just a better place to die
I put one foot in front of the other one I don't need a new love or a new life Just a better place to die
In front of the other one In front of the other one Just a better place to die
