"We Are Young"

(feat. Janelle Monáe)

 

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 seat’s 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

 

Now I know that I’m not

All that you got

I guess that I, I just thought

Maybe we could find new ways to fall apart

But our friends are back

So let’s raise a toast

‘Cause I found someone to 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

 

Carry me home tonight (Nananananana)

Just carry me home tonight (Nananananana)

Carry me home tonight (Nananananana)

Just carry me home tonight (Nananananana)

 

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
