Lyrics:
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 (Nananananana)
I have no reason to run (Nananananana)
So will someone come and carry me home tonight (Nananananana)
The angels never arrived (Nananananana)
But I can hear the choir (Nananananana)
So will someone come and carry me home (Nananananana)
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

Going to Highschool soon.... this makes me look back on all those subtle but sweet times from Elementary and Middle School, like running off and hiding in the bathrooms during pep rally’s, playing grounders every recess, going to the supposedly haunted bathroom in elementary, teasing our teachers, sleepovers, staying up till 5 am cackling with your late night buddy while everyone else is sleeping, swimming at the local pool.... ow my nostalgia hurts meeeeeeee Edit: and then the summers? Oh my gosh, swimming in the lake with my cousins laughing and splashing, late night talks with your sisters, long road trips at night and at golden hour, late night movies with family, birthday parties, laughing with family and friends about the stupid kids at school... everything that makes summer, summer

Every song was amazingly positive sounding, even if the lyrics didn’t match up to the emotional beat. Music got seriously depressing in the last 7 years. Gotta love these Gen Z classics

[@TheBestCheesecake530]

I doubt anyone will see this or care. But fuck it. As soon as i hot play I felt a heaviness in my chest. Like the music moved me like water through my ribs and lungs. I stopped my painting and closed my eyes to just feel the music when the images of my past came back to me. From the innocence of childhood, to the amazing clarity of feeling "grown up" at 15. It was so much, and went from calmly doing art to suddenely sobbing on my bed. The difference of who I was then to now will never cease to amaze me. All the trials I have gone through that killed the hope that I used to have. The people I have lost and pushed away from me. The amazing new opportunities of growing up squashed out by things that were beyond my control. We all think there's no tommorrow, no next week, no next year. We all take our ideals and thoughts for granted, or at least I did/do.

[@Katz1123]

This was me, although i've only focused on the future. In 11th grade I told myself that after this very stressful year my next year would be the best year of my life so I can finally get closure and move with a new life in college. Well Covid hit and I STILL refuse to believe I graduated, just like that. I spent that entire year of my life I was aspiring for at home doing nothing.
