Lyrics:
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
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 we’re young
And we’ll feel so alive
When we were young festival!!
this sends me right back to middle school dances 😭 good times
screamooooooo
Had I known that was "the good ole days", I would have stayed.
its not a phase mom!
2022 ,
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Watching in Malaysia at 0008hrs January, 29, 2022. Tiktok bring me back here. Really missed my old day.
To be 14 again 😔
2022 still here?
I forgot all about this song then the lyrics popped in my head and i had ti find it again 🤘🤘
Censoring "get drunk and drive around" was really before it's time.
Just turned 37 Tuesday. I miss this era of my life, who's with me?
2022 everyone?
24 yrs old legend jan 30 2022
Old music is gold ♥️
Paper bags and plastic hearts
All our 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
And 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
We'll cry, but 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 we're young
But we'll feel so alive
Throw it away, forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
And 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 we've 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
And 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
And 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!
Oh my! Havent herd this know forever. So many memories 😭
I'm 32 and I still listen to this. I remember my Highschool days.

Im 28 now I may get older but our music from back in the day is timeless af
I was in 4th grade when this song always playing in any radio stations
i got here because of YouTube algorithms, i started with the queens guard doing ''i'll do anything for love'' then the queens guard doing ''the greatest escape''. i wanted to know if someone done a cover in metal and i got here…………not regretting a effing thing
Throw it away forget yesterday we'll make the great escap. 🎶🎵

This song is amazing to just sing along to at the top of your voice! It's a permanent fixture on any of my playlists haha
I can picture this song playing at the end of a movie
Any listeners in 2023?
Much better than Kpop gays
When everything made sense
31 and still going strong. Music hasn't touched my soul since early 2000's scene music.
