Grab The Drinks

Stacked glasses on a sticky bar

We’re broke, but we’re acting large

You say, “Tonight, we’re living hard”

Coins clatter in a chipped tip jar

Laugh lines deep in the bathroom mirror

We’re a little older, but the song’s still clear

Your arm on my shoulder, you lean in near

“You and me, let’s disappear”

Grab the drinks, let’s toast to nothing

To every maybe we survived

Raise it high for all our almosts

For every time we stayed alive

Grab the drinks, we’re still in trouble

Hearts off-key and out of sync

But if the world keeps falling apart

We’ll be here saying, “Grab the drinks”

Jukebox stuck on the same old track

We scream the words, never looking back

Your lipstick print on a paper cup

You grin and say, “We’re leveling up”

Your phone keeps buzzing, you kill the screen

“Tonight I’m free,” you say to me

Bare feet dancing on the ripped red seats

Spilling secrets, spilling whiskey

Grab the drinks, let’s toast to nothing

To every maybe we survived

Raise it high for all our almosts

For every time we stayed alive

Grab the drinks, we’re still in trouble

Hearts off-key and out of sync

But if the world keeps falling apart

We’ll be here saying, “Grab the drinks”

Here’s to bad jobs, almost lovers

Late rent, late trains, late bloomers

Here’s to all the plans we ruined

All the times we said, “This time, for sure” (for sure)

Grab the drinks, let’s toast to nothing

To every maybe we survived

Raise it high for all our almosts

For every time we stayed alive

Grab the drinks, we’re still in trouble

Hearts off-key and out of sync

But if the world keeps falling apart

We’ll be here saying, “Grab the drinks”

We’ll be here screaming, “Grab the drinks”
