Raise Your Glass Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I stayed up all night, looked at the stars
Have you ever forgot who you are?
I was in deep and I was so far, so far away from the heart
I took the red pill, I fell in love
I took the blue pill down on my luck
I gotta leave this scene, gotta clean myself up, yeah
I'm on my way now, I'm rocket fuel
I quit the drinking to help me feel
It's gonna be a long road but I'm at the wheel, yeah, yeah
Yeah, I know where I'm going this time for real

[Chorus]
So raise your glass
We're coming home
So raise your glass
We'rе coming home

[Verse 2]
The sound of silencе, it used to hurt
But I found comfort in my own very words
I'm bigger than the world when I am well (Bigger than the world)
I shine bright like lightning
You might find that frightening
'Til you let go, let go, let go and come home
[Chorus]
So raise your glass
We're coming home
So raise your glass
We're coming home
We're coming home

[Bridge]
And I can't say I don't regret
The years that passed, lost self-respect
But I had to make my own mistakes
To know where I was going
I letting go and I setting free
Getting rid of all the shit you see
'Cause it's been hard and it's been tough
But I guess that's just called growing

[Chorus]
So raise your glass
We're coming home
So raise your glass
We're coming home
We're coming home
Raise your glass now, yeah, yeah
We're coming home
We're coming, coming, coming home

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What have the artists said about the song?
Genius Answer

It was really nice, this song, because it was the first song we all wrote together after I started coming back to Brighton again after lockdown.

What did YONAKA say about "Raise Your Glass"?
Genius Answer

This is such a joyous song. It’s about your journey—where you’ve come from to where you are now and how you have to fuck up and you have to make mistakes to learn. I don’t know anyone in the world who hasn’t fucked up, because that’s the only way you learn how to not do something again. The chorus is almost two vocal choruses, and so it was hard to decide which one to sing when we played it live.
