Losing sight of a past time

The years fly right by with the drinks

It's morning in this small apartment

And I just threw up in the sink.

The coke is not settling anything

And I'm as tired as I've ever been

I'd like to go back to Chicago

But I'm not looking back there again

I fought with all of my teachers

I fought with all of my friends

I fought with the vices and sweating and shakes

I'm not going back there again.

No, I'm not going back there again.

Tonight, tonight I'm walkin' away.

Tonight, tonight I'm walkin' away.

I don't want to hear about old days -

What are we doing today?

Fake memories, they don't impress me.

The old times were never that great.

We got the whole city

Before us

Tonight, tonight we're walkin' away

And I wanna bury

The past

Tonight, tonight we're walking away

With bottles and dancing

With whiskey and love

Let's drink to the death of regret

Tonight, tonight I'm walkin' away

Tonight, tonight I'm walkin' away

Ohhh.
