With nitroglycerine dripping off our chins And elbows sliding off the bar We speak and breathe and charm our way Under trains and between cars I'm drinking whatever you're buying If you've got enough left to see it through I say we soak ourselves to the bone I'm not going home unless it's with you Kickstart the night And drown the world facedown in a loud song Let's start a fire And let the scorned drink to things gone wrong We won't appreciate these days until they're all gone We never recognize what's right So here's to thing gone wrong I need some kind of savior to pull me from this seat From the people, from the smell, from the price, from the heat From the way they purchase hope with their last of change While they try to look different But they're all the same I got one more song left on the jukebox And then I'm all yours I got two left feet so tired of standing Let's hit the door before we hit the floor Kickstart the night And drown the world facedown in a loud song Let's start a fire And let the scorned drink to things gone wrong
We won't appreciate these days until they're all gone We never recognize what's right So here's to thing gone wrong I'm not going anywhere where they know me, anytime, anymore Sidestep the misspent souls from high school I spent years learning to ignore And the ma**es of throbbing kids in tight t-shirts packed into this bar All praying for half an hour of romance All half lucky they made it this far So with a night two years in the making And a half a mind to run as fast as I can Amidst a life spent going crazy Come and save me from inside my head Kickstart the night And drown the world facedown in a loud song Let's start a fire And let the scorned drink to things gone wrong We won't appreciate these days until they're all gone We never recognize what's right So here's to thing gone wrong Kickstart the night And drown the world facedown in a loud song Let's start a fire And let the scorned drink to things gone wrong We won't appreciate these days until they're all gone We never recognize what's right
