We Are Young
Dianna Agron Lea Michele Naya Rivera Cory Monteith Chord Overstreet & Amber Riley Lyrics

Give me a second I, I need to get my story straight
I need a moment to gather my thoughts and make sure I'm prepared to handle this situation.

My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire State
My friends are using drugs in the bathroom and getting extremely intoxicated.

My lover he’s waiting for me just across the bar
My romantic partner is waiting for me nearby in this establishment.

My seat’s been taken by some sunglasses asking bout a scar, and
Someone wearing sunglasses has taken my seat and is asking me about a scar I have.

I know I gave it to you months ago
I realize I gave you something a few months ago.

I know you’re trying to forget
I understand that you're attempting to put this event out of your mind.

But between the drinks and subtle things
Despite the alcohol and nuanced details,

The holes in my apologies, you know
My apologies are incomplete and deficient, and you're aware of that.

I’m trying hard to take it back
I'm making an effort to reclaim and rectify this situation.

So if by the time the bar closes
If the bar has closed by the time this event is over,

And you feel like falling down
And you feel exhausted or overwhelmed,

I’ll carry you home
I'll take you home in my arms.

Tonight, we are young
We're currently very young and full of life.

So let’s set the world on fire
Let's do something extraordinary that will garner a lot of attention and perhaps even be a bit dangerous.

We can burn brighter than the sun
We have a lot of energy, charisma, and vigor, and can make a substantial impact on the world.

Now I know that I'm not all that you got, I guess that I
I understand that I'm not the only person in your life, and I suppose that I,

I just thought maybe we could find new ways to fall apart
I reckoned that perhaps we could explore novel techniques to distance ourselves from each other or even break up.

But our friends are back
Our mutual acquaintances have returned.

So let's raise a cup
Let's lift our glasses and toast to something or someone.

'Cause I found someone to carry me home
Since I discovered someone who can take me home, I feel contented and relieved.

Carry me home tonight
Please escort me to my place of residence this evening.

The world is on my side
I feel supported and optimistic about my future and endeavors.

I have no reason to run
There are no compelling justifications for me to flee or escape.

So will someone come and carry me home tonight
Might someone help me get home tonight, please?

The angels never arrived
Help didn't come from unexpected or divine sources.

But I can hear the choir
However, I can hear a group of people singing together in harmony.

So will someone come and carry me home
Thus, might someone come and assist me in getting back to my dwelling?
