[00:00.000][Macklemore:]
[00:06.899]And we drink and get older
[00:09.889]And some of us even try to get sober
[00:12.847]Now here's to the assholes and the last calls
[00:16.351]We're city kids
[00:17.656]You get what you ask for
[00:19.265]
[00:19.822]And acquaintances turn to friends
[00:21.328]I hope those friends they remember me
[00:23.245]Hold the night for ransom as we kidnap the memories
[00:26.470]Not sure there is a way to express what you meant to me
[00:29.849]Sit around a table and use those years as the centerpiece
[00:33.033]
[00:33.497][Ryan Lewis:]
[00:33.889]Sounds of the city on Capitol Hill
[00:36.136]Where I question if what I'm seeing here is real
[00:39.729]Cowboy boots doing lines at the bar
[00:42.686]Where the time goes slow when you're drinking PBR
[00:45.726]

[00:59.423][Macklemore:]
[01:00.045]Hold on to what you were, forget what you're not
[01:02.671]The streets were ours that summer, at least those two blocks
[01:05.897]Reminisce on those days, I guess that's OK, you wonder why
[01:09.360]Some grow up, move on, close the chapter, live separate lives
[01:12.955]The twenty-something confusion before the suit and tie
[01:16.131]Strangers become mistakes but those mistakes made you feel alive
[01:19.157]Hindsight is vibrant, reality: rarely lit
[01:22.737]Memory's a collage pasted with glue that barely sticks
[01:25.930]Good Lord, they broke all my shields
[01:28.860]Locked bathroom doors, graffiti, and high heels
[01:32.411]Until you felt that altitude you don't know how high feels
[01:35.416]Party mountain, some don't ever come down from around here
[01:39.224]To be young again, I guess it's relative
[01:42.448]The Camel Lights, the whiskey rye, sink into the skin
[01:45.692]I fantasize about a second wind
[01:48.458]Grow a moustache, pick up another bad habit and let the games begin
[01:51.923]

[02:18.182][Macklemore and Ryan Lewis:]
[02:19.074]So here's to the nights, dancing with the band
[02:21.771]Strangers into girlfriends from a one-night stand
[02:24.979]Brought a little liquor and turn up the Johnny Cash
[02:28.065]You could bring a receipt to Heaven but you cannot take it back
[02:31.390]And this is life, this is real, even when it feels like it isn't
[02:34.713]I'd be a goddamn liar to say at times I didn't miss it
[02:37.648]So deuces, I turn my back as I walk into the distance
[02:41.157]Dip my feet in every once in a while, just to say I visit
[02:44.488]Come and hold onto these nights
[02:48.004]Trying to find our way home by the street light
[02:51.019]Over time we figure out this is me, right
[02:53.701]Learn a lot about your friends right around two A.M.
[02:56.903]
