Paper bags and plastic hearts

All are belongings in shopping carts
It's goodbye
But we got one more night

Let's get drunk and ride around
And make peace with an empty town
We can make it right


Throw it away
Forget yesterday

We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight


Tonight will change our lives
It's so good to be by your side

But we'll cry
We won't give up the fight
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs

And they'll think it's just cause were young
And we'll feel so alive


Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape

We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway


Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight


All of the wasted time
The hours that were left behind

The answers that we'll never find
They don't mean a thing tonight


Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape

We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway


Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape

We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway


Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape

We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn

Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight
