Give me a second I
I need to get my story straight
My friends are in the bathroom
getting higher than the empire state
my lover she is waiting for me
just across the bar
My seat's been taken by some sunglasses
asking 'bout a scar
and I know I gave it to you months ago
I know you're trying to forget
but between the drinks and subtle things
the holes in my apologies
you know I'm trying hard to take it back
so if by the time the bar closes
and you feel like falling down
I'll carry you home
Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter
than the sun
Tonight
we are young
so let's set the world on fire
we can burn brighter
than the sun
Now I know that I'm not
all that you got
I guess that I
I just thought maybe we could find a ways to fall apart
But our friends are back
So let's raise a toast
Cause I found someone to carry me home
Tonight

We are young
So let's the set the world on fire
we can burn brighter
than the sun
Tonight
We are young
so let's set the world on fire
we can burn brighter
than the sun
Carry me home tonight
Just carry me home tonight
Carry me home tonight
Just carry me home tonight
The moon is on my side
I have no reason to run
So will someone come and carry me home tonight
The angels never arrived
but I can hear the choir
so will someone come and carry me home
Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
we can burn brighter
than the sun
Tonight
We are young
so let's set the world on fire
we can burn brighter
than the sun
So if by the time the bar closes
and you feel like falling down
I'll carry you home tonight

I actually think it doesn't necessarily mean he beat up the chick, not physically that is. I feel that he has emotionally #!@%*# her up, making their relationship unstable, maybe he's cheated & lied, or just treated her bad & those are the scars on her heart, & maybe now he's trying to change. Not sure.

Just read the lyrics - list to the song - it's about a guy who beat up his chick and is basically saying, "Sweetie, I know you don't want to see/talk to me anymore, but please, it won't happen again - I'm here for you - here, let me show you, you're drunk, I'll take you home".
That type of situation. It's still a rockin' good song though! It kind of reminds me of something that should have come out in the 80's. I mean, it's got that rhythm and that feeling of freedom! Bad message, but great sound!
