Five Years Songtext
So you graduate, you're moving up in the world, in every right
But once you get there no Friday nights
Then you meet some girls in a sorority and it begins
Selling your individuality to fit in
Mistake sex for love
Why is it this way?
Refuse to rise above
The role you choose to play
Now you're more well known and you have real friends but you can't see
That the number of guys you have sex with keeps multiplying
One more of night of drugs and alcohol to make you whole
Going out to try to fill the void in your sole
Look at you, hate your life, your not proud
I don't care if you agree, just respect yourself
When you were little, did you see yourself like this when you were older?
You thought you'd be special, growing up your dreams are over
Going to the bars, a new guy every time, you try to fill the void, but it is just a lie
Downward spiral into misery, you try to hide it but we all see
Respect yourself
Being this way you don't even realize what you miss
You can be anything in your life, your more than this
Using sex to get the things that you want, your breeding hate
Never knowing what it's like to have real love, it's not too late
But once you get there no Friday nights
Then you meet some girls in a sorority and it begins
Selling your individuality to fit in
Mistake sex for love
Why is it this way?
Refuse to rise above
The role you choose to play
Now you're more well known and you have real friends but you can't see
That the number of guys you have sex with keeps multiplying
One more of night of drugs and alcohol to make you whole
Going out to try to fill the void in your sole
Look at you, hate your life, your not proud
I don't care if you agree, just respect yourself
When you were little, did you see yourself like this when you were older?
You thought you'd be special, growing up your dreams are over
Going to the bars, a new guy every time, you try to fill the void, but it is just a lie
Downward spiral into misery, you try to hide it but we all see
Respect yourself
Being this way you don't even realize what you miss
You can be anything in your life, your more than this
Using sex to get the things that you want, your breeding hate
Never knowing what it's like to have real love, it's not too late
