Here's to all the luck that pours down on me
Here's to all the melodies that picked us up off our seats
Here's to the younger ones when they replace me
Here's to the bitterness that keeps the sweet so sweet
Here's to all the words that we'll never speak
Here's to all the pretty girls that you're gonna meet
Here's to the little lies I tell in my sleep
Here's to the secrets that you're gonna keep
Why don't you raise up, raise up your cup?
I've had enough - raise up your cups.
Here's to the company that we used to keep
Here's to the certainty of sickness and sleep
Here's to the death of who we thought we were
Here's to all our kids that'll never be born
Why don't you raise up, raise up your cup?
I'm choking up ? raise up your cups
To draggin' around
A cross and a thorny crown
And livin' because you're willing
And being forgiven ? thankfully.

Rilo Kiley è stato un gruppo musicale indie rock formatosi a Los Angeles nel 1998. Il nucleo del gruppo era composto da Jenny Lewis (voce, chitarra), Blake Sennett (chitarra, voce) e Pierre de Reeder (basso). Dopo l'uscita di alcuni EP indipendenti, hanno firmato con la Barsuk Records nel 2001, pubblicando il loro album di debutto "The Initial Joy of Living". Il gruppo ha raggiunto un successo crescente negli anni successivi, grazie a album come "More Adventurous" (2004) e "Under the Blacklight" (2007), caratterizzati da melodie orecchiabili, testi introspettivi e una sonorità che mescolava elementi di folk, pop e rock alternativo. Nel 2010, dopo un periodo di pausa, Rilo Kiley si è sciolto ufficialmente. Jenny Lewis ha proseguito la sua carriera solista con successo, mentre Blake Sennett ha formato il gruppo The Elected.
