Money lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

was like
"I wanna be, be, be in the game
I wanna know, know your middle name
If we can go, go, it won't be the same
Cause right now you're killing the game"

Everybody's gonna go big tonight
In a couple hours we'll be like

Take my money, take my keys
Drive this car through the drive-thru please
From the floor to the ceiling, robbing and stealing
Everybody in the place catch that feeling like
Ooooh ooooh
Take my money

Late night, passed out in Tokyo
New York, LA, Chicago
She said her friends were at the show
Backstage, will let them in
"They wanna be, be, be in the game
They wanna know, know what we gotta say
And in the front row, you're going insane
And in the back row you're killing the game"

Everybody's gonna go big tonight
In a couple hours we'll be like

Take my money, take my keys
Drive this car through the drive-thru please
From the floor to the ceiling, robbing and stealing
Everybody in the place catch that feeling like

Take my money, take my keys
Drive this car through the drive-thru please
From the floor to the ceiling, robbing and stealing
Everybody in the place, you can all
Take my money, take my keys
Drive this car through the drive-thru please
From the floor to the ceiling, robbing and stealing
Everybody in the place catch that feeling like
Ooooh ooooh
Take my money, take my money

Ka-ching!

She's Kinda Hot lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

My girlfriend’s bitchin’ 'cause I always sleep in
She’s always screamin’ when she’s calling her friend
She’s kinda hot though
Yeah, she’s kinda hot though
(Just an itty bitty little bit hot)

My shrink is telling me I got crazy dreams
She’s also saying I got low self-esteem
She’s kinda hot though
Yeah, she’s kinda hot though
(Just a little bit a little bit hot)

She put me on meds, she won’t get out of my head
She’s kinda hot though
(One, two, three, go!)

My friend left college 'cause it felt like a job
His mom and dad both think he’s a slob
He’s got a shot though (No, not really)
Yeah, he’s got a shot though (No, no, not really)

When you’ve got bigger plans that no one else understands
You’ve got a shot though
(Oh my, that’s a big plan you’ve got there)

They say we’re losers and we’re alright with that
We are the leaders of the not-coming-back’s
But we’re alright though
Yeah, we’re alright though
We are the kings and the queens of the new broken scene
Yeah, we’re alright though
(Uno, dos, tres, cuatro)

Sometimes I’m feeling like I’m going insane
My neighbour told me that I got bad brains
But I’m alright though (We’re alright though)
Yeah, we’ll be alright though (We’re alright though)
'Cause we’re the kings and the queens of the new broken scene
And we’re alright though
(One, two, three, four)

They say we’re losers and we’re alright with that
We are the leaders of the not-coming-back’s
But we’re alright though (We’re alright though)
Yeah, we’re alright though (We’re alright though)
We are the kings and the queens of the new broken scene
Yeah, we’re alright though (We're gonna be OK)

Na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na
But we’re alright though
Na na na na na na na na na na na
Yeah, we’re alright though
Na na na na na na na na na na na
We are the kings and the queens of the new broken scene
Yeah, we’re alright though

Hey Everybody! lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

She maxed her credit cards and don't got a job
She pays for gas with all the change in her car
It's not the end of the road
Yeah, we've all been there before and it goes oh

He's walking home 'cause he can't pay for the bus
He needs a dollar but he ain't got enough
It's not the end of the world
Yeah, we've all been there before and it goes oh

Hey everybody, we don't have to live this way
We can all get some, yeah, we can all get paid
So what you say everybody? Gotta live it up today
We can all get some, yeah, we can all get paid

Don't have your rent and it's the first of the month (where's my money?)
Your bank account has got insufficient funds
We can't afford to give up
We gotta make our own luck and it goes oh

Work every weekend just to get out of town
Everyone says that you'll just turn back around
And what's ironic to me,
The ones that don't ever leave think that they know

Hey everybody, we don't have to live this way
We can all get some, yeah, we can all get paid
So what you say everybody? Gotta live it up today
We can all get some, yeah, we can all get paid

Hey everybody, we don't have to live this way
We can all get some, yeah, we can all get paid
So what you say everybody? Gotta live it up today (today)
We can all get some, yeah, we can all get paid

Say hey (gotta live it up today)
Whoa (yeah, we don't have to live this way)

Permanent Vacation lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

[Michael:]
You say that I'm too complicated
Hung up and mis-educated
I say 9 to 5 is overrated
And we all fall down

[Michael:]
I can't sleep 'cause my mind keeps racing
My chest hurts 'cause my heart keeps breaking
I'm so numb and I can't stop shaking
And we all fall down

[Luke:]
Frustration, desperation
You say I need some kind of medication
Situation: no motivation
Destination: permanent vacation

[All:]
Hey, I'm doing fine
And I know I'm out of line
So let's sing this one more time
It goes
Destination: permanent vacation

[Michael:]
Na-na, na-na na na

[Michael and Calum:]
Voices coming through the speaker
They can't make me a believer
I know I'm an under-achiever
And we're all so proud

[Calum:]
Watch out, I think we're going under
Right now, you're just another number
Get out, the system's in the gutter
And we're all so proud

[Luke:]
Frustration, desperation
You say I need some kind of medication
Situation: no motivation
Destination: permanent vacation

[All:]
Hey, I'm doing fine
And I know I'm out of line
So let's sing this one more time
It goes
Destination: permanent vacation

[All:]
Hey, I'm doing fine
And I know I'm out of line
So let's sing this one more time
It goes
Destination: permanent vacation

[All:]
Na-na, na-na na na na na
Na-na, na-na na na na na

[Michael:]
Congratulations, your imitations
Are taking over the radio stations
Corporations, calculations
We're the voice of the new generation

[All:]

Jet Black Heart lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Everybody’s got their demons
Even wide awake or dreaming
I’m the one who ends up leaving
Make it okay

See a war I wanna fight it
See a match I wanna strike it
Every fire I’ve ignited
Faded to grey

But now that I’m broken
Now that you know it
Caught up in a moment
Can you see inside?

'Cause I’ve got a jet black heart
And there’s a hurricane underneath it
Trying to keep us apart
I write with a poison pen
But these chemicals moving between us
Are the reason to start again

Now I’m holding on for dear life
There’s no way that we could rewind
Maybe there’s nothing after midnight
That could make you stay

But now that I’m broken
And now that you know it
Caught up in a moment
Can you see inside?

'Cause I’ve got a jet black heart
And there’s a hurricane underneath it
Trying to keep us apart
I write with a poison pen
But these chemicals moving between us
Are the reason to start again

The blood in my veins
Is made up of mistakes
Let’s forget who we are
And dive into the dark
As we burst into color
Returning to life

'Cause I’ve got a jet black heart
And there’s a hurricane underneath it
Trying to keep us apart
I write with a poison pen
But these chemicals moving between us
Are the reason to start again

The blood in my veins
Is made up of mistakes
(To start again)
Let's forget who we are
And dive into the dark

Catch Fire lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Oh say, can you see? This is not who I'm supposed to be
Without you I'm nobody killing time

I try to deceive, try to win you desperately
Now I'm lost in the swirling sea of your sorry eyes

All my life I've been waiting for moments to come
When I catch fire, and wash over you like the sun
I will fight to fix up and get things right
I can't change the world but maybe I'll change your mind

Oh say, do you know? I'm a fool in a one-man show
I'm a broken stereo, out of time

So how does it feel? All alone, is it so surreal?
Because the ghost of survivor's guilt can be so unkind

All my life, I've been waiting for moments to come
When I catch fire, and wash over you like the sun
I will fight to fix up and get things right
I can't change the world but maybe I'll change your mind

The words you speak, surrounding me
This is broken love, in the first degree
The air you breathe is haunting me
Maybe I'll change your mind

All my life I've been waiting for moments to come
When I catch fire, and wash over you like the sun
I will fight to fix up and get things right
I can't change the world
I know that I can't change the world
But maybe I'll change your mind

Safety Pin lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Runaways, we're the long lost children
Running to the edge of the world
Everybody wants to throw us away
Broken boy meets broken girl

You said you tried it all before
And it only makes it worse
Oh, but this time, maybe this time
Two wrongs make it right

We'll safety-pin the pieces of our broken hearts back together
Patching up all the holes until we both feel much better
Deleted things, I really meant. So now I'll say the things I never sent
We'll safety-pin the pieces of our broken hearts back together

Throwing rocks at your broken window
Only you can cure my sickness
Raise ourselves and a middle finger
'Cause they all think we're twisted

Once I had a little taste
Now I'm addicted to your fix
Oh, yeah, this time, maybe this time
Two wrongs make it right

We'll safety-pin the pieces of our broken hearts back together
Patching up all the holes until we both feel much better
Deleted things, I really meant. So now I'll say the things I never sent
We'll safety-pin the pieces of our broken hearts back together

No more waiting. We can save us from falling [5x]
This time, maybe this time

We'll safety-pin the pieces of our broken hearts back together
Patching up all the holes until we both feel much better
Deleted things, I really meant. So now I'll say the things I never sent
We'll safety-pin the pieces of our broken hearts back together

No more waiting. We can save us from falling [4x]

Waste The Night lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Need your love, need your love.

Taste of your tongue, oh, the smoke in your lungs
And I need your love, and I need your love
The salt on your skin is pulling me in
And I need your love, and I need your love

I don't wanna say goodbye to another night
And watch you walk away
I don't wanna let it burn in the city lights
And make the same mistakes

This time
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste the night
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste the night

The scratch in your voice leaves me no choice
And I won't give up, and I can't give up

I don't wanna say goodbye to another night
And watch you walk away
I don't wanna let it burn in the city lights
And make the same mistakes

This time
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste the night
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste the night

I don't wanna say goodbye to another night
I don't wanna let it burn in the city lights

I don't wanna say goodbye to another night
And watch you walk away
I don't wanna let it burn in the city lights
And make the same mistakes

This time
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste the night
I don't wanna waste the night
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it
Don't wanna waste the night
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it, don't wanna waste it

Vapor lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

I'll take what you got, got, got
I know it's not a lot, lot, lot
Cause I just need another hit
You're the thing that I can't quit
You got what I want, want, want
Here but then you're gone, gone, gone
If you told me that we were through
You know that I would break the truth

I want to breathe you in like a vapor
I want to be the one you remember
I want to feel your love like the weather
All over me, all over me
I want to print our hands in the pavement
Savour your words, I won't ever waste them
Look in your eyes and know just what you meant
So lie to me, just lie to me

So talk, talk, talk
Well tell me what I want, want, want
If I don't look into your eyes
It's almost like a perfect lie
So don't stop, stop, stop
We'll take another shot, shot, shot
Cause you know you've got perfect aim
I wanna feel you in my veins

I want to breathe you in like a vapor
I want to be the one you remember
I want to feel your love like the weather
All over me, all over me
I want to print our hands in the pavement
Savour your words, I won't ever waste them
Look in your eyes and know just what you meant
So lie to me, just lie to me

You make it sound so sweet
When you lie to me
Make it sound so sweet
When you lie to me

I want to breathe you in like a vapor
I want to be the one you remember
I want to feel your love like the weather
All over me, all over me
I want to print our hands in the pavement
Savour your words, I won't ever waste them
Look in your eyes and know just what you meant
So lie to me, just lie to me

You make it sound so sweet
When you lie to me
Make it sound so sweet
When you lie to me

Castaway lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Oh ohh [x3]
Oh oh

Young love, close the chapter, there's no ever after
Fell fast, ended faster, yeah

Oh ohh

Late night conversations, led to complications
Now my heart is in my hands

Oh ohh

But you walked out and left me stranded
Nothing left but picture frames
And I just keep on asking myself

How'd we drift so far away from where we left off yesterday?
I'm lonely like a castaway

Oh ohh

Heartbreak that I can't escape, a sinking ship I'll never save
I'm lonely like a castaway

Oh ohh

All your screaming whispers, slip right through my fingers
But these memories linger on

Oh ohh

Eyes closed, all I see is good times disappearing
And I'm trying to hold on

Oh ohh

Cause you walked out and left me stranded
Nothing left but picture frames
I just keep on asking myself

How'd we drift so far away from where we left off yesterday?
I'm lonely like a castaway

Oh ohh

Heartbreak that I can't escape, a sinking ship I'll never save
I'm lonely like a castaway

Oh ohh

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh... [x3]

Castaway

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh... [x3]

Castaway

How'd we drift so far away from where we left off yesterday?
I'm lonely like a castaway

How'd we drift so far away from where we left off yesterday?
I'm lonely like a castaway

Oh ohh

Heartbreak that I can't escape, a sinking ship I'll never save
I'm lonely like a castaway

Oh ohh

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh... [x3]
Castaway, castaway

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh... [x3]
Castaway, castaway

The Girl Who Cried Wolf lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

I'm not leaving

Every time you say to me it's over
You just wanna start again, it's just lies
The girl who cries wolf every day
Ignored by gravity, but in the end, don't ask why

You say you wanna, but do you wanna run away?
Your great escape, oh yeah
Where you going? Always running
Find a way to call it quits again

So look at me in the eye
Is anyone there at all
Is anyone there at all
Cause I'm not dreaming
So look at me in the eye
Is anyone there at all
Is anyone there at all
Cause I'm not leaving

(Cause I'm not leaving)

Does it have to be this tragedy?
This endless lost parade
A castle of facade of make believe
The truth is spelled out in your eyes
Why don't you just reach out and make it clear to me?
What are you telling me?

You say you wanna, but do you wanna run away?
Your great escape, oh yeah
Where you going? Always running
Find a way to call it quits again

So look at me in the eye
Is anyone there at all
Is anyone there at all
Cause I'm not dreaming
So look at me in the eye
Is anyone there at all
Is anyone there at all
Cause I'm not leaving

(Cause I'm not leaving
Cause I'm not leaving)

Is anyone there at all? Is anyone there at all?
Is anyone there? Is anyone there at all?
Is anyone there at all? Is anyone there at all?
Is anyone there at all? Cause I'm not dreaming
Is anyone there at all? Is anyone there at all?
Is anyone there? Is anyone there at all?

Look at me in the eye, is anyone there at all?
Is anyone there at all? I'm not dreaming
Look at me in the eye, is anyone there at all?
Is anyone there at all? Cause I'm not leaving

Broken Home lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

They would yell, they would scream, they were fighting it out
She would hope, she would pray, she was waiting it out
Holding onto a dream
While she watches these walls fall down
Sharp words like knives, they were cutting her down
Shattered glass like the past, it's a memory now
Holding onto a dream
While she watches these walls fall down

Hey mom, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Who's right, who's wrong
Who really cares?
The fault, the blame, the pain's still there
I'm here alone inside of this broken home, this broken home

Wrote it down on the walls, she was screaming it out
Made it clear, she's still here, are you listening now?
Just a ghost in the halls
Feeling empty, they're vacant now
All the battles, all the wars, all the times that you've fought
She's the scar, she's the bruises, she's the pain that you brought
There was life, there was love
Like a light and it's fading out

Hey mom, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Who's right, who's wrong
Who really cares?
The fault, the blame, the pain's still there
I'm here alone inside of this broken home, this broken home

You've gotta let it go, you're losing all your hope
Nothing left to hold, locked out in the cold
You painted memories then washed out all the scenes
I'm stuck in between a nightmare and lost dreams

Hey mom, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Hey mom, hey dad
When did this end?
Where did you lose your happiness?
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
Who's right, who's wrong
Who really cares?
The fault, the blame, the pain's still there
I'm here alone inside of this broken home
This broken home

Fly Away lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Counting down these seconds
Jumping off these fences
Find another place to start again
The cracks in the sidewalk
I'm over all the small talk
Taking off like fire in the wind

I won't waste another day wishing this would fade away
Running we're not looking back

I want a little bit of California
With a little bit of London sky
I wanna take my heart to the end of the world
And fly away tonight
I want a little bit of open ocean
With a New York state of mind
I wanna take my heart to the end of the world
And fly away
Fly away tonight

(Fly away tonight)
(Fly away tonight)

A never ending replay
With memories I can't erase
I see the best of times in front of me
Now I'm off to paradise
To a war I'll never fight
Say goodbye to pain and misery

I won't waste another day wishing this would fade away
Running we're not looking back

I want a little bit of California
With a little bit of London sky
I wanna take my heart to the end of the world
And fly away tonight
I want a little bit of open ocean
With a New York state of mind
I wanna take my heart to the end of the world
And fly away
Fly away tonight

I won't waste another day wishing this would fade away
I won't waste another day wishing this would fade away

Counting down the seconds
Always second guessing
I'm dreaming of a place to start again

I want a little bit of California
With a little bit of London sky
I wanna take my heart to the end of the world
And fly away tonight
I want a little bit of open ocean
With a New York state of mind
I wanna take my heart to the end of the world
And fly away
Fly away tonight

(Fly away tonight)
(Fly away tonight)

Invisible lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

"What? What's that?"

Another day,
Of painted walls and football on the TV
No one sees me
I fade away,
Lost inside a memory of someone's life
It wasn't mine

I was already missing before the night I left
Just me and my shadow and all of my regrets
Who am I? Who am I when I don't know myself?
Who am I? Who am I?
Invisible

Wasted days,
Dreaming of the times I know I can't get back
Seems I just lost track
Looking on
As all of life's colours seem to fade to grey
I just walked away

I was already missing before the night I left
Just me and your shadow and all of my regrets
Who am I? Who am I when I don't know myself?
Who am I? Who am I?
Invisible

Who am I? Who am I when I don't know myself?
Who am I? Who am I?
Invisible
Who am I? Who am I when I don't know myself?
Who am I? Who am I?
Invisible

Another day,
The walls are built to keep me safe
I can't escape,
It's too late

Airplanes lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Most of my life
I sat on my hands.
I don't make a sound.
Getting it right
I made all my plans.
Lost, never found.

Your eyes, your smile can light up the night, night.
Embers and neon signs paint up our sky, sky.

Airplanes cut through the clouds
Like angels can fly.
We'll never die.
Sirens cut through the night
Like screams set on fire,
Rising up higher.
Like I've something to prove, nothing to lose.
In this city, in this city. Whoa.

All of this time
I questioned myself.
I never could wait.
Looking for signs,
Not asking for help.
I know it's too late.

Love lost and buried here. It comes to life, life.
Make believe worlds make us all feel alive, live.

Airplanes cut through the clouds
Like angels can fly.
We'll never die.
Sirens cut through the night
Like screams set on fire,
Rising up higher.
Like I've something to prove, nothing to lose.
In this city, in this city. Oh.

I don't ever wanna wait for this,
I know that I was made for this.
I won't fade into dark.
I'm not gonna say that I'm sorry,
Gonna see the end of this story.
I won't fade into darkness.

Airplanes cut through the clouds
Like angels can fly.
We'll never die.
Sirens cut through the night
Like screams set on fire,
Rising up higher
Like I've something to prove, nothing to lose.
In this city, in this city. Oh.

San Francisco lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

I can still taste you like it was yesterday
Making plans to rule the world, you were more than I deserved
I see you running in the sand, long hair blowing in the wind
Never thought that it would end

Leaves fall from the tallest trees
Even mountains crumble into the sea
Holding on to memories
And I can't let go

I wanna get back to where we started to the summer night
You know, you know, you know, you know we got it right
Yeah I wanna get back to San Francisco, in the fire light
You know, you know, you know, you know we had it right

Remember that weekend when we got out of town?
Drove into infinity, I held you 'til you fell asleep
Without you, the smell of your perfume
Reminds me of when we were free, I swear that it's still haunting me

Leaves fall from the tallest trees
Even mountains crumble into the sea
Holding on to memories
And I can't let go

I wanna get back to where we started to the summer night
You know, you know, you know, you know we got it right
Yeah I wanna get back to San Francisco, in the fire light
You know, you know, you know, you know we had it right

We don't gotta say anything, don't gotta say anything
Don't say a word at all, don't say a word at all
We don't gotta say anything, don't gotta say anything
Don't say a word at all, don't say a word at all
I wanna get back to where we started to the summer night
You know, you know, you know, you know we got it right

I wanna get back to where we started to the summer night
You know, you know, you know, you know we got it right
Yeah wanna get back to San Francisco, in the fire light
You know, you know, you know, you know we had it right

We don't gotta say anything, don't gotta say anything
Don't say a word at all, don't say a word at all
We don't gotta say anything, don't gotta say anything
Don't say a word at all, don't say a word at all

Outer Space / Carry On lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

[Outer Space]

I can still taste the ocean like it was today
You said, "Please, keep on holding your hands."
And the rain—it came too soon.
I will wait for you
To love me again

I guess I was running from something
I was running back to you
Lost here in London with nothing
I'm still running back to you

If you can love me again
I could let go of everything

If I was an island in search of castaways
Maybe I'll find you here
And the rain—it came too soon.
I will wait for you
To love me again

I guess I was running from something
I was running back to you
Lost here in London with nothing
I'm still running back to you
If you can love me again
I could let go of everything

[4x]
The darkest night
Never felt so bright
With you by my side

[4x]
Nothing like the rain, nothing like the rain
When you're in outer space, when you're in outer space

[2x]
Love me like you did, love me like you did
I'll give you anything, I'll give you anything

[Carry On]

Carry on, let the good times roll
Sail along, let your path unfold
It won't be long, won't be long, won't be long
You know it's gonna get better,
You know it's gonna get better

Say a prayer for the broken bones
'Cause who cares? We're all going home
And it won't be long, won't be long, won't be long
You know it's gonna get better,
You know it's gonna get better

I got one foot in the golden life,
One foot in the gutter
So close to the other side,
So far from the wonder
I got one foot in the golden life,
One foot in the gutter
So sick of the tug of war,
That keeps pulling me under

Let the good times roll
Let the good times roll

Carry on,
Outlast the ignorance
Moving on,
Survive the innocence
Won't be long, won't be long, won't be long
You know it's gonna get better

The Space Between A Rock And A Hard Place (Catch 22) lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Wasted,
I play the same part
Where I'm chasing
Your sick little heart
'Til I'm jaded and lying on the floor

Faded,
I'm wrapped in your arms
While you're waiting
To tear me apart
With a last kiss, you leave me wanting more.

You, you're a catch 22
Win or lose, I'm screwed
I'm trapped under your spell
It saves me, breaks me 'til I fall back to you
You're a catch 22
You're a catch 22

Restless,
I stay awake with the spaces
The thought of our hands interlacing,
It's taking over me

Reckless,
I'm at your front door
And I'm helpless,
I'm twisted back up in the madness,
Repeating history

Promise me, you'll never let me leave

You, you're a catch 22
Win or lose, I'm screwed
I'm trapped under your spell
It saves me, breaks me 'til I fall back to you
You're a catch 22
You're a catch 22

Damned if I do, damned if I don't
Let me go, I'm better off alone
And here we go again

You, you're a catch 22
Win or lose, I'm screwed
I'm trapped under your spell
It saves me, breaks me 'til I fall back to you
You're a catch 22

Win or lose, I'm screwed
I'm trapped under your spell
It saves me, breaks me 'til I fall back to you
You're a catch 22
Win or lose, I'm screwed

Story Of Another Us lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Replay the scene over again
Before the credits rolling in
Inside my head
I don't recall a single word,
You hit me faster than I heard
Inside my head

And now I'm shaking, wearing thin
I always wonder where you'd been
Tell me if you wanted it at all

I got a long-term plan with short-term fixes
And a wasted heart that just eclipses
And I push my luck from trust to dust enough
That's the story of another us
One last ditch, a new beginning
So take this heart, put yourself in it
This surprise ending I'm depending on
Could be the story of another us
The story of another us
The story of another us
The story of another us
Could be the story of another us

Memories are pay-per-view,
It costs too much to think of you
I'm hanging by a thread
An epilogue before we're done,
A sequel to what we've begun
I'm hanging by a thread

And now before our hope is lost
My heart is here, it's such a cause
Tell me if you wanted it at all

I got a long-term plan with short-term fixes
And a wasted heart that just eclipses
And I push my luck from trust to dust enough
That's the story of another us
One last ditch, a new beginning
So take this heart, put yourself in it
This surprise ending I'm depending on
Could be the story of another us
The story of another us
The story of another us
The story of another us
Could be the story of another us

Draw me, beside you
Where I'll be to remind you
We're still first in line for
The front row of last resorts

One last ditch, a new beginning
So take this heart, put yourself in it
This surprise ending I'm depending on

I got a long-term plan with short-term fixes
And a wasted heart that just eclipses
And I push my luck from trust to dust enough
That's the story of another us
One last ditch, a new beginning
So take this heart, put yourself in it
This surprise ending I'm depending on
Could be the story of another us
The story of another us
The story of another us
The story of another us
Could be the story of another us

Broken Pieces lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

I woke up in the place we started
Your clothes on the floor in that old apartment
I never thought you'd leave without a trace
I can't shake this sinking feeling
I know you're not there and I'm barely breathing
Holding onto things I can't replace

I'm looking for a way to change my mind
Don't walk away

Oh, tell me what we're fighting for
It's turning to an all out war
I'll find a way to fix these broken pieces
And let go
I'm tryna find a way back home
If it takes until I'm skin and bones
I'll find a way to fix these broken pieces
And let go

Our last words ringing in my head
I wish we'd take back all the things we said
I'm tryna find a way to yesterday
Turning in circles and chasing our tails
And wondering why we created this wasteland
I wish you wouldn't be so cavalier

I'm looking for a way to change my mind
Don't walk away

Oh, tell me what we're fighting for
It's turning to an all out war
I'll find a way to fix these broken pieces
And let go
I'm tryna find a way back home
If it takes until I'm skin and bones
I'll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go
Let go, let go
Fix these broken pieces and let go

We're fading out, we're all alone
It's what you wanted, I suppose
I can tell you feel the same
When you say you're looking for a way to change your mind, don't walk away

Oh, tell me what we're fighting for
It's turning to an all out war
We'll find a way to fix these broken pieces

Oh, tell me what we're fighting for
It's turning to an all out war
I'll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go
I'm tryna find a way back home
If it takes until I'm skin and bones
I'll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go
Let go, let go
Fix these broken pieces and let go

Over And Out lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Take a seat and just listen up
Cause this rhyme and reason done too much
I'm a dime a dozen thrown to sea, you'll have to wait and see
You can have all of your outbreaks
If you let me make my own mistakes
I lie awake in my own head

Because of you, I'm gone for good and that's the truth
Because of you, I'm gone for good, I'll be brand new
You can break me down, just like you did before
Because of you, I'm gone for good and that's me over and out

I hear the sirens at the door
They're always coming back for more
I'm left with pockets of regret, swear I won't forget
The tragedy of success is
Believing in second chances
I lie awake in my own head (woah)

Because of you, I'm gone for good and that's the truth
Because of you, I'm gone for good, I'll be brand new
You can break me down, just like you did before
Because of you, I'm gone for good and that's me over and out
That's me over and out

So take me as I am, take me for everything
Replacing who I am, with who I'd rather be
So take me as I am, take me for everything
Replacing who I am

Because of you, I'm gone for good and that's the truth
Because of you, I'm gone for good, I'll be brand new
You can break me down, just like you did before
Because of you, I'm gone for good and that's me over and out
That's me over and out
That's me over and out

Lost In Reality lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

You throw me around like your rag doll
And throw me away like your cigarettes
And pick up the pieces of whatever's left of me,
They're yours to keep
A million and one ways that I've tried
To turn it around, leave it all behind
But every time you turn out to be
One step ahead of me

Lost in reality
I can feel you in the dark when I fall asleep
All that's in my head are pictures of memories,
Words that you said to me
Hey, hey, Hailey, won't you save me?
Bittersweet chemistry
I can't escape you anywhere, even in my dreams
All that's in my head are pictures of memories,
Words that you said to me
Hey, hey, Hailey, won't you save me?

Under all the lights in the night sky
You drift away, then you disappear
Counting the days 'til I bring you back
To me, eventually
And my strung-out heart needs your angel eyes
They tear me apart and I'm hypnotized
Let's pick up the pieces of whatever's left of me,
They're yours to keep

Lost in reality
I can feel you in the dark when I fall asleep
All that's in my head are pictures of memories,
Words that you said to me
Hey, hey, Hailey, won't you save me?
Bittersweet chemistry
I can't escape you anywhere, even in my dreams
All that's in my head are pictures of memories,
Words that you said to me
Hey, hey, Hailey, won't you save me?

Lost in reality
I can feel you in the dark when I fall asleep
All that's in my head are pictures of memories,
Words that you said to me
Hey, hey, Hailey, won't you save me?

Lost in reality
I can feel you in the dark when I fall asleep
All that's in my head are pictures of memories,
Words that you said to me
Hey, hey, Hailey, won't you save me?
Bittersweet chemistry
I can't escape you anywhere, even in my dreams
All that's in my head are pictures of memories,
Words that you said to me
Hey, hey, Hailey, won't you save me?

Daylight lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

I can't look at you in the same light
Knowing what you did in my heart doesn't feel right
Yeah, my head's been tripping all night
I need another point of view
I got a friend who's committed to sci-fi
He's read every comic he's addicted to Twilight
He'll give you the Goosebumps, but he's never lead me wrong
He said, she's got a method of killing
Pulling you in like you're gonna start kissing
Fooling around until you've lost all feeling
Sucking your blood until your heart stops beating

Before we started, it was over
I feel our bodies getting colder
She gives me, a feeling that I can't fight
And it's the road that leads to nowhere
But all I want to do is go there
She's got me, running from the daylight
Daylight

I got a taste for it and I'm obsessed
Lying here no fear of the darkness
Now I'm not happy unless, I'm close enough to you
And all these dreams I'm dreaming
Freaking me out I wish I knew the meaning
Doesn't make sense because I'm just not seeing
How I'm alive it feels like I'm not breathing

Before we started it was over
I feel our bodies getting colder
She gives me, a feeling that I can't fight

And it's the road that leads to nowhere
But all I want to do is go there
She's got me, running from the daylight
Daylight

I'm not ready to start again
And you're not willing to make amends
Now the daylight's dangerous
It will turn us both to dust

I'm not ready to start again
And you're not willing to make amends
Now the daylight's dangerous
And it is much too late for us

Before we started it was over
I feel our bodies getting colder
She gives me, a feeling that I can't fight

And it's the road that leads to nowhere
But all I want to do is go there
She's got me, running from the daylight
Daylight

I feel our bodies getting colder
She gives me, a feeling that I can't fight
And it's the road that leads to nowhere
But all I want to do is go there
She's got me, running from the daylight
Daylight

American Idiot lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

(originally by Green Day)

[Michael:]
Don't wanna be an American idiot.
Don't want a nation under the new mania
And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind fuck America.

[Luke:]
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alienation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.

[Michael:]
Well, maybe I'm the faggot America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along to the age of paranoia.

[Ashton:]
You lookin' at me?

[Calum:]
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alienation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.

[Ashton:]
Luke!

[All:]
Don't want to be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information age of hysteria.

[Calum:]
It's calling out to idiot America.

[Michael:]
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alienation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.

[Ashton:]
I'm not fucking okay!

[Michael:]
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.
C'mon!

Good Girls lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Do do do d-do do do do do do

She's a good girl
She's Daddy's favorite
He's saved for Harvard
He know she'll make it
She's good at school
She's never truant
She can speak French
(I think she's fluent)

'Cause every night she studies hard in her room
At least that's what her parents assume
But she sneaks out the window to meet with her boyfriend
Here's what she told me the time that I caught her

She said to me,
"Forget what you thought
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught.
So just turn around and forget what you saw
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught."

Whoa oh oh oh- oh whoa oh
Good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught
Whoa oh oh oh- oh whoa oh
Good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught

She's a good girl
A straight A student
She's really into
All that self-improvement
I swear she lives in that library
But if you ask her she'll say,
"That's where you'll find me!"

But if you look then you won't find her there
She may be clever but she just acts too square
'Cause in the back of the room where nobody looks
She'll be with her boyfriend
She's not reading books!

She said to me,
"Forget what you thought
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught.
So just turn around and forget what you saw
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught."

Do do do d-do do do do do do
Good girls are bad girls and good girls are bad girls
Do do do d-do do do do do do
Good girls are bad girls and good girls are bad girls

She's a good girl
(She's a good girl)
Hasn't been caught
(She's a good girl)
She's a good girl
(She's a good girl)
Hasn't been caught... caught... caught... caught... caught... caught... caught... caught...

She said to me,
"Forget what you thought
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught.
So just turn around and forget what you saw
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught."

She said to me,
(She said to me)
"Forget what you thought
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught.
So just turn around
(Just turn around)
And forget what you saw
'Cause good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught."

Whoa oh oh oh-oh whoa oh
Good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught
Whoa oh oh oh-oh whoa oh
Good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught
Whoa oh oh oh- oh whoa oh
Whoa oh oh- oh oh whoa oh
Good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught

Kiss Me Kiss Me lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh
Here's to teenage memories

Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh
Here's to teenage memories

Can I call, wake you up on a Sunday?
Late night, I think we need a getaway
Headlights, hold tight, turn the radio loud (turn the radio loud)
Let me know where to go and I'll get you there
Tell the truth and I'll show you how to dare
Flashlights, held tight, we can own this town

Never say goodbye

So kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
And tell me that I'll see you again
Cause I don't know
If I can let you go
So kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
I'm dying just to see you again
Let's make tonight the best of our lives, yeah
Here's to teenage memories
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh
(Here's to teenage memories)

Close your eyes you'll be mine and it's alright
Take a breath, no rest 'til the sunrise
Heartbeat, so sweet when your lips touch mine
We don't have to go home right now
We're never gonna stop cause we're dreaming out loud
We know what we want, we know were gonna get it somehow

Never say goodbye

So kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
And tell me that I'll see you again
Cause I don't know
If I can let you go
So kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
I'm dying just to see you again
Let's make tonight the best of our lives, yeah
Here's to teenage memories

[Break - guitar solo]

So kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
And tell me that I'll see you again
Cause I don't know
If I can let you go
So kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
I'm dying just to see you again
Let's make tonight the best of our lives, yeah
Here's to teenage memories

Woah oh woah, woah oh [x2]
Here's to teenage memories

18 lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Oh
Oh

[Luke:]
I wish that I was eighteen, do
All the things
You read in a magazine
I'm not saying I wanna be Charlie Sheen

[Calum:]
She's just a little bit older
But I want to get to know her
She said it's already over

So tell me what else can I do?
I bought my fake ID for you

[All:]
She told me to meet her there
I can't afford a bus fare
I'm not old enough for her
I'm just waiting 'til I'm eighteen

Oh

[Calum:]
I think she wants to get with me
But she's got a job in the city
Says that she's always too busy

[Michael:]
She's got a naughty tattoo
In a place that I want to get to,
But my mom still drives me to school

[Calum and Luke:]
So tell me what else can I do?
I bought my fake ID for you

[All:]
She told me to meet her there
I can't afford a bus fare
I'm not old enough for her
I'm just waiting 'til I'm eighteen

You got me waiting in a queue
For a bar I can't get into
I'm not old enough for you
I'm just waiting 'til I'm eighteen

[Luke:]
In my bedroom thinking of ya
Her pictures in my private folder
I know one day that I will hold her
I'll make my move when I get older
Make my move when I get older

[All:]
She told me to meet her there
I can't afford a bus fare
I'm not old enough for her
I'm just waiting 'til I'm eighteen

You got me waiting in a queue
For a bar I can't get into
I'm not old enough for you
I'm just waiting 'til I'm eighteen

[Luke:]
I'm so sick of waiting 'til I'm eighteen

Everything I Didn't Say lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Whoa, whoa
[Calum:]
This is everything I didn't say

Wait, don't tell me, heaven is a place on earth
I wish I could rewind all the times that I didn't
Show you what you're really worth
(what you're really worth)

The way, you held me, I wish that I had put you first
I was wrong I admit, numb from your kiss
While you were slipping through my fingertips

[All:]
Taking every breath away
With all of the mistakes I made
From all the letters that I saved
This is everything I didn't say
I wish I could've made you stay
And I'm the only one to blame
I know that it's a little too late
This is everything I didn't say

Whoa, whoa
This is everything I didn't say

[Luke:]
Wake me up now, and tell me this is all a bad dream
All the songs that I wrote, all the wrongs that I hoped would erase from your memory
(erase from your memory)
Holding onto a broken and empty heart
Flowers I should've bought, all the hours I lost
Wish I could bring it back to the start

[All:]
Taking every breath away
With all of the mistakes I made
From all the letters that I saved
This is everything I didn't say
I wish I could've made you stay
And I'm the only one to blame
I know that it's a little too late
This is everything I didn't say

[Michael:]
I hope you know, for you I'd sacrifice
To make this right, whoa whoa
Someday, I'm sure
We'll pass each other by
Until that time

[All:]
Taking every breath away
With all of the mistakes I made
From all the letters that I saved
This is everything I didn't say
I wish I could've made you stay
And I'm the only one to blame
I know that it's a little too late
This is everything I didn't say

[2x:]
Whoa, whoa
This is everything I didn't say

End Up Here lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

You walked in
Everyone was asking for your name
You just smiled and told them "Trouble"

My head spins
I'm pressed against the wall
Just watching your every move
You're way too cool
And you're coming this way
Coming this way

How did we end up talking in the first place?
You said you liked my Cobain shirt
Now we're walking back to your place
You're telling me how you love that song
About living on a prayer
I'm pretty sure that we're halfway there
And when I wake up next to you I wonder how
How did we end up here?

(How did we end up,
How did we end up here?)

Next day out
Everybody thought you were so insane
'Cause you were so far out of my league

My friends say I should lock you down
Before you figure me out and you run away
But you don't and you won't as you kiss me
And you tell me that you're here to stay

How did we end up talking in the first place?
You said you liked my Cobain shirt
Now we're walking back to your place
You're telling me how you love that song
About living on a prayer
I'm pretty sure that we're halfway there
And when I wake up next to you I wonder how
How did we end up here?

Call me lucky 'cause in the end
I'm a six and she's a ten
She's so fit, I'm insecure
But she keeps coming back for more

How did we end up talking in the first place?
You said you liked my Cobain shirt
Now we're walking back to your place
You're telling me how you love that song
About living on a prayer
I'm pretty sure that we're halfway there
And when I wake up next to you I wonder how
How did we end up here?

How did we end up,
How did we end up here?

How did we end up,
How did we end up here?

Long Way Home lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

We're taking the long way home
Taking the long way home

Take me back to the middle of nowhere
Back to the place only you and I share
Remember all the memories?
The fireflies and make-believe
Kicking back in the old school yard
Singing songs on our guitars
This is our reality
Crazy stupid, you and me

We know this is the way it's supposed to be

So we're taking the long way home
'Cause I don't wanna be wasting my time alone
I wanna get lost and drive forever with you
Talking about nothing, yeah, whatever, baby
So we're taking the long way home tonight

So we're taking the long way home
We're taking the long way home
Taking the long way home

Now we're stuck in the middle of nowhere
Yeah, you know we took our time to get there
We're hiding out in a dream
Catching fire like kerosene
And you know I'd never let you down
'Til the sun comes up, we can own this town
Something like make-believe
Living in a movie scene

We know this is the way it's supposed to be

So we're taking the long way home
'Cause I don't wanna be wasting my time alone
I wanna get lost and drive forever with you
Talking about nothing, yeah, whatever, baby
So we're taking the long way home

Hitting every red light
Kissing at the stop signs, darling
Green Day's on the radio
And everything is alright
Now we're turning off the headlights, darling
We're just taking it slow

So we're taking the long way home
'Cause I don't wanna be wasting my time alone
I wanna get lost and drive forever with you
Talking about nothing, yeah, whatever, baby
So we're taking the long way home

Hitting every red light
Kissing at the stop signs, darling
Green Day's on the radio
And everything is alright
Now we're turning off the headlights, darling
We're just taking it slow

We're taking the long way home [3x]

Lost Boy lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

I can't remember the last time I saw your face
I feel so lonely when I'm in a crowded space
You left me without direction

'Cause I've been from place to place
Trying to bring you back
I've walked for days and days
'Cause I can't face the fact
That nothing is better than you

I'm coming because I need to find you
Is anybody there who can rescue
Somebody like me?
'Cause I'm just waiting
For somebody like you
Somebody like you

Without you I'm a lost boy
Without you I'm a lost boy
Come find me I'm a lost boy
'Cause without you I'm a lost boy.

I can't remember the last time I heard your voice
I'm sat in silence living in a world of noise
'Cause you were perfection

'Cause I've been from place to place
Trying to bring you back
I've walked for days and days
'Cause I can't face the fact
That nothing is better than you

I'm coming because I need to find you
Is anybody there who can rescue
Somebody like me?
'Cause I'm just waiting
For somebody like you
Somebody like you

Without you I'm a lost boy
Without you I'm a lost boy
Come find me I'm a lost boy
'Cause without you I'm a lost boy

Come find me [x16]

Without you I'm a lost boy
Without you I'm a lost boy
Come find me I'm a lost boy
'Cause without you I'm a lost boy

I'm coming because I need to find you
Is anybody there who can rescue
Somebody like me?
'Cause I'm just waiting
For somebody like you
Somebody like you

Without you I'm a lost boy

Heartbreak Girl lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

You call me up,
It's like a broken record
Saying that your heart hurts
That you never get over him getting over you.
And you end up crying
And I end up lying,
'Cause I'm just a sucker for anything that you do.

And when the phone call finally ends,
You say, "Thanks for being a friend,"
And we're going in circles again and again

[Chorus:]
I dedicate this song to you,
The one who never sees the truth,
That I can take away your hurt, heartbreak girl.
Hold you tight straight through the day light,
I'm right here. When you gonna realize
That I'm your cure, heartbreak girl?

I bite my tongue but I wanna scream out
You could be with me now
But I end up telling you what you wanna hear,
But you're not ready and it's so frustrating
He treats you so bad and I'm so good to you it's not fair.

And when the phone call finally ends
You say, "I'll call you tomorrow at 10,"
And I'm stuck in the friend zone again and again,

[Chorus]

I know someday it's gonna happen
And you'll finally forget the day you met him
Sometimes you're so close to your confession,
I gotta get it through your head
That you belong with me instead,

[Chorus 2x]

Amnesia lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

[Calum:]
I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted
I thought about our last kiss, how it felt, the way you tasted
And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine

Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you?
When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?

Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?

'Cause I'm not fine at all

[Luke:]
I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape

'Cause I'm not fine at all

[Calum:]
The pictures that you sent me they're still living in my phone
I'll admit I like to see them, I'll admit I feel alone
And all my friends keep asking why I'm not around

It hurts to know you're happy, yeah, it hurts that you've moved on
It's hard to hear your name when I haven't seen you in so long

It's like we never happened, was it just a lie?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?

'Cause I'm not fine at all

[Luke:]
I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape

If today I woke up with you right beside me
Like all of this was just some twisted dream
I'd hold you closer than I ever did before
And you'd never slip away
And you'd never hear me say

I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape

'Cause I'm not fine at all
No, I'm really not fine at all
Tell me this is just a dream
'Cause I'm really not fine at all

Social Casualty lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

La la la, la la la da da
La la la, la la la da da
(Woo!)

[Luke:]
Just a kid, it's all the same
Growing up, it doesn't change
Who are they to try and put us down?
Had enough of what they say
Sick and tired of all their games,
Stand up and sing it with me now

La la la, la la la da da
La la la, la la la da da

[Michael:]
So save me from who I'm supposed to be
Don't wanna be a victim of authority
I'll always be a part of the minority
Save me from who I'm supposed to be
So tell me, tell me, tell me what you want from me,
I don't wanna be another social casualty
(Social casualty)

[Calum:]
Just a girl who turned eighteen
She ran away to chase her dreams.
And they said she wouldn't make it far.
She took a chance and packed her bags
She left town and didn't look back
So tired of wishing on the stars (wishing on the stars)

La la la, la la la da da
La la la, la la la da da

[Michael:]
So save me from who I'm supposed to be
Don't wanna be a victim of authority
I'll always be a part of the minority
Save me from who I'm supposed to be
So tell me, tell me, tell me what you want from me,
I don't wanna be another social casualty

La la la, la la la da da (go)
La la la, la la la da da (scream)

So save me from who I'm supposed to be
Don't wanna be a victim of authority
I'll always be a part of the minority

[Michael:]
Save me from who I'm supposed to be
So tell me, tell me, tell me what you want from me,
I don't wanna be another social casualty

La la la, la la la da da
(Social casualty)
La la la, la la la da da

Never Be lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Oh whoa whoa oh, oh oh oh
Oh whoa whoa oh
[x2]

I need your love to light up this house
I wanna know what you're all about
I wanna feel you, feel you, tonight
I wanna tell you that it's alright

I need your love to guide me back home
When I'm with you, I'm never alone
I need to feel you, feel you, tonight
I need to tell you that it's alright

We'll never be as young as we are now
It's time to leave this old black and white town
Let's seize the day
Let's run away
Don't let the colors fade to grey
We'll never be as young as we are now
As young as we are now

Oh whoa whoa oh, oh oh oh
Oh whoa whoa oh

I see myself here in your eyes
Stay awake 'till the sunrise
I want to hold you, hold you, all night
I want to tell you that you're all mine

I feel our hands intertwined
Hear our hearts beating in time
I need to hold you, hold you, all night
I need to tell you that you're all mine

We'll never be as young as we are now
It's time to leave this old black and white town
Let's seize the day
Let's run away
Don't let the colors fade to grey
We'll never be as young as we are now
As young as we are now

We won't wait
For tomorrow
It's too late
We don't follow
[x2]

We'll never be as young as we are now
It's time to leave this old black and white town
Let's seize the day
Let's run away
Don't let the colors fade to grey
We'll never be as young as we are now
As young as we are now

Oh whoa whoa oh, oh oh oh
Oh whoa whoa oh
[x2]

As young as we are now

Voodoo Doll lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

[Luke:]
I don't even like you,
Why'd you want to go and make me feel this way? (What?)
And I don't understand what's happened,
I keep saying things I never say.

[Michael:]
I can feel you watching even when you're nowhere to be seen,
I can feel you touching even when you're far away from me.

[Michael and Calum:]
Tell me where you're hiding your voodoo doll 'cause I can't control myself,
I don't wanna stay, I wanna run away but I'm trapped under your spell.
And it hurts in my head and my heart and my chest,
And I'm having trouble catching my breath.

Oohooh Oohoh

[Calum:]
Won't you please stop loving me to death?

[Luke:]
I don't even see my friends no more,
'Cause I keep hanging out with you.
I don't know how you kept me up all night,
Or how I got this tattoo.

[Michael:]
I can feel you watching even when you're nowhere to be seen,
I can feel you touching even when you're far away from me.

[Michael and Calum:]
Tell me where you're hiding your voodoo doll 'cause I can't control myself,
I don't wanna stay, I wanna run away but I'm trapped under your spell.
And it hurts in my head and my heart and my chest,
And I'm having trouble catching my breath.

Oohooh Oohoh

[Calum:]
Won't you please stop loving me to death?

[Luke and Calum:]
Every time you're near me,
Suddenly my heart begins to race.
Every time I leave,
I don't know why my heart begins to break.

[Michael and Calum:]
Tell me where you're hiding your voodoo doll 'cause I can't control myself,
I don't wanna stay, I wanna run away but I'm trapped under your spell.
And it hurts in my head and my heart and my chest,
And I'm having trouble catching my breath.

Oohooh Oohoh

[Calum:]
Won't you please stop loving me to death?

Green Light lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

It started with a picture,
Those messages you sent to me.
You're like the perfect mixture
Of Megan Fox and Katy P.

It's such a sick obsession,
And now you've got the best of me.
I've got the worst intentions,
So call me over and set me free.

I can give you what you want.

[Chorus:]
It's taking me over.
I don't wanna play this game no more.
All you gotta do is tell me right now,
You want me right now, come on.
Give me the green light.
We could have all night
If you just say the word.
Tell me it's alright.
Give me the green light.

You got me where you want me,
I'm hanging on your every word.
It's such a twisted story,
How you got me,
Now you got me.

So let me give you what you need.

[Chorus:]
It's taking me over.
I don't wanna play this game no more.
All you gotta do is tell me right now,
You want me right now, come on.
Give me the green light.
We could have all night
If you just say the word.
Tell me it's alright.
Give me the green light.

So let me give you what you need.

[Chorus:]
It's taking me over.
I don't wanna play this game no more.
All you gotta do is tell me right now,
You want me right now, come on.
Give me the green light.
We could have all night
If you just say the word.
Tell me it's alright.
Give me the green light.

English Love Affair lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

[Michael:]
It started on a weekend in May,
I was looking for attention
Needed intervention
Felt somebody looking at me
With a powder white complexion
Feeling the connection

[Calum & Michael:]
The way she looked was so ridiculous
Every single step had me waiting for the next
Before I knew it, it was serious
Dragged me out the bar to the backseat of a car

[Calum:]
When the lights go out
She's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
Kissing in the rain
I can't forget my English love affair
Today,
I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playing in my head
Of her king size bed
Means I can't forget my English love affair
My English love affair

[Luke:]
Next thing we were back at her place
A hideaway in Mayfair
All the great and good there
Drinking all the way to third base
Princess getting naked
Falling on their faces

[Calum & Luke:]
The storyline was so ridiculous
Every single step had me begging for the next
Before I knew it, it was serious
Dragged me up the stairs and it wasn't ending there

[Calum:]
When the lights go out
She's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
Kissing in the rain
I can't forget my English love affair
Today,
I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playing in my head
Of her king size bed
Means I can't forget my English love affair

[Chorus x2:]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Ashton:]
When I got out I knew
That nobody I knew would be believing me
I look back now and know
That nobody could ever take the memory

[Calum:]
When the lights go out
She's all I ever think about
The picture burning in my brain
Kissing in the rain
I can't forget my English love affair
Today,
I'm seven thousand miles away
The movie playing in my head
Of her king size bed
Means I can't forget my English love affair

[Chorus x2:]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
My English love affair

Mrs. All American lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

I love that accent you have when you say hello
You relocated from New York a month ago
That minivan that you drive really gets me going
And if it feels like it's right
Then it can't be wrong

No one understands the chemistry we have
And it came out of nowhere
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's not like we planned this, it's getting out of hand
And now we're gonna go there
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Walk my way
Mrs All American
Say my name
No need to pretend
Don't be shy
Mrs All American
I'll show you why
You're not gonna walk away
Yeah

Not just a neighbour
Oh hey there I'll ring your bell
Open your door, pucker up
And I'll kiss you well
My lips are sealed
There's nobody that I would tell
Your secret's mine, close your eyes
And I'll make you melt

No one understands the chemistry we have
And it came out of nowhere
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's not like we planned this, it's getting out of hand
And now we're gonna go there
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Walk my way
Mrs All American
Say my name
No need to pretend
Don't be shy
Mrs All American
I'll show you why
You're not gonna walk away
Oh yeah

Na na na na na na na na
You know what she like
Na na na na na na na na
You know what she like
Na na na na na na na na
Ah you know what she like
Na na na na na na na

Walk my way
Mrs All American
Say my name
No need to pretend
Don't be shy
Mrs All American
I'll show you why
You're not gonna walk away

(Walk my way)
Oh yeah
(Say my name)
You're not gonna walk away
(Don't be shy)
(I'll show you why)
You're not gonna walk away

Tomorrow Never Dies lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

[Ashton:]
(Tomorrow never dies)

[Calum:]
Life can be so hard to breathe
When you're trapped inside a box
You're waiting for a break to come
It always comes too late

You're on the edge just stumbling
And the road it starts to wind
But every time a page is turned
A chance to make it right

[Luke:]
Oh the sun will rise
Like a flame ignites

[Ashton:]
We're not done till we say it's over
We won't fade away

[Luke:]
Oh the sun will rise

[Ashton:]
Tomorrow never dies
(Tomorrow never dies)

[Calum:]
It's hard to see the enemy
When you're looking at yourself
Maybe your reflection shows you
Screaming out for help

And you try your best to just keep up
And your feet they fall behind
But the beat you're marching to
You're keeping perfect time

[Luke:]
Oh the sun will rise
Like a flame ignites

[Ashton:]
We're not done till we say it's over
We won't fade away

[Luke:]
Oh the sun will rise

[Ashton:]
Tomorrow never dies

[Calum:]
Try your best to change your fate
You can just enjoy the ride
The sun will rise, the moon will fall
Tomorrow never dies
(It never dies)

[Luke:]
Oh the sun will rise
(The sun will rise the sun will rise)
Like a flame ignites
(A flame ignites a flame ignites)

[Ashton:]
We're not done till we say it's over
We won't fade away

[Luke:]
Oh the sun will rise

[Ashton:]
Tomorrow never dies
Tomorrow never dies
Tomorrow never dies

Independence Day lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Oh Oh

You're telling me the same old story
And that I need to change
If you're not living my life for me
You make it feel that way

You know you know
We're losing control
I gotta break away
Or nothing's gonna change

You've got to go
It's the end of the road
No matter what you do or say
Baby, you're not what I need

I'm over this
I'm over you
I'm not gonna waste my life away
This is my independence day
I'm moving on
There's no excuse
And I can't take away your pain
This is my independence day [2x]

Suddenly my picture's looking perfect
Since you're not in the frame
And deep down I never meant to hurt you
But you're the one to blame

You know you know
We're losing control
Before it's too late
I'm making my escape

Now that I'm gone
You're on your own
No matter what you do or say
Baby, you're not what I need

I'm over this
I'm over you
I'm not gonna waste my life away
This is my independence day
I'm moving on
There's no excuse
And I can't take away your pain
This is my independence day

Wouldn't it be nice
If it could've worked out right for us?
I know you fought for all we had

But it didn't feel right
Heart's on our sleeves, we lost tonight
And there's no looking back

I'm over this
I'm over you
I'm not gonna waste my life away
This is my independence day
I'm moving on
There's no excuse
And I can't take away your pain
This is my independence day

Wouldn't it be nice
If it would've worked out right for us?
There's no looking back

This is my independence day [2x]

Close As Strangers lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Six weeks since I've been away
And now you're sayin' everything has changed
And I'm afraid that I might be losing you
And every night that we spend alone
It kills me thinking of you on your own
And I wish I was back home next to you

Oh, everyday
You feel a little bit further away
And I don't know what to say

Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much
Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces
Now it feels we're as close as strangers

Late night calls and another text
Is this as good as we're gonna get?
Another timezone taking me away from you
Living dreams in fluorescent lights
While you and I are running out of time
But you know that I'll always wait for you

Oh, everyday
You feel a little bit further away
And I don't know what to say

Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much
Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces
Now it feels we're as close as strangers

On the phone
I can tell that you wanna move on
Through the tears
I can hear that I shouldn't have gone
Every day gets harder to stay away from you
So tell me...

Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers

Wasting time
Talking on a broken line
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much
Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces
Now it feels we're as close as strangers

Six months since I went away
And I know everything has changed
But tomorrow I'll be coming back to you

EP: "Don't Stop" (2014)

Don't Stop lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

You're like perfection, some kind of holiday
You've got me thinking, that we can run away
You want I'll take you there
You tell me when and where
Ooohh oh oh

But then I, asked for your number
Said you don't have a phone,
It's getting late now
I've gotta let you know that

Everybody wants to take you home tonight
But I'm gonna find a way to make you mine

Don't stop doing what you're doing
Every time you move to the beat it gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop, 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room you got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it

You come in close now, swear I can taste it,
You've got me tongue tied I can't escape it
I'm loving what you got
But then you push me off
Ooohh oh oh oh

And everybody wants to take you home tonight
But I'm gonna find a way to make you mine

Don't stop doing what you're doing
Every time you move to the beat it gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop, 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room you got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it

Every day it's the same
All the games that you play
Back and forth round and round
Kinda like it this way

Don't stop doing what you're doing
'Cause every time you move to the beat it gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop, 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room you got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it, know it

Don't stop doing what you're doing
Every time you move to the beat it gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop, 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room you got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it

Rejects lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

Back at school they all thought I was an outcast, car crash
"A hopeless fool," they said to me.
And my girlfriend said I messed up. Will I ever grow up?
In the end, I'm not gonna

What was I thinking?
Everyone sees it
It's not a secret
That I'm just a reject
Sick of the system
Don't wanna hear it
It's not a secret
That I'm just a reject

I'm just a reject

My teacher said I was mentally disabled, so unstable
So I'll stay in bed all day
Save your breath. You can talk at me, but I'm not listening
If this is a test, then I'm probably failing

What was I thinking?
Everyone sees it
It's not a secret
That I'm just a reject
Sick of the system
Don't wanna hear it
It's not a secret
That I'm just a reject

They try to save me, but I'm too far gone
And they call me crazy so I played along
And you wanna change me, but I'm on my own

La da da da da, la da da da duh [2x]

What was I thinking?
Everyone sees it
It's not a secret
That I'm just a reject
Sick of the system
Don't wanna hear it
It's not a secret
That I'm just a reject

I'm just a reject [2x]

Try Hard lyrics - 5 Seconds of Summer

She dropping outta school 'cause she don't need the grades.
The colours in her hair don't seem to fade.
I get dressed up when I go out, but she gets dressed down.

She's 17, I told her I'm 20.
I couldn't take her out 'cause mum's got no money.
It's stuff like this that makes me wish that I could change somehow.

Sitting here at home.

It's obvious,
She's so out of reach, and I'm finding it hard
'Cause she makes me feel, makes me feel,
Like I try, like I try, like I'm trying too hard,
'Cause I'm not being me, and it's getting me down
That she makes me think, makes me think,
That I try, that I try, that I'm trying too hard again

'Cause I'm trying too hard again

She's got a rose tattoo but she keeps it covered,
I play guitar but she's into drummers,
She's seen my face around but she doesn't even know my name

I pierced my lip so she thinks I'm cool,
I ripped my jeans and dropped out of school,
I followed her 'round the town but she thinks that I'm a weirdo now

Sitting here at home.

It's obvious,
She's so out of reach, and I'm finding it hard
'Cause she makes me feel, makes me feel,
Like I try, like I try, like I'm trying too hard,
'Cause I'm not being me, and it's getting me down
That she makes me think, makes me think,
That I try, that I try, that I'm trying too hard again

But now, who knew?
That she's in the crowd of my show
Nothing to lose,
She's standing right in the front row
The perfect view,
She came along on her own,
And there's something that you should know

You're so out of reach, and I'm finding it hard
'Cause you make me feel, you make me feel,
Yeah she makes me feel, she makes me feel

It's obvious
She's so out of reach, and I'm finding it hard
'Cause she makes me feel, makes me feel,
Like I try, like I try, like I'm trying too hard,
'Cause I'm not being me, and it's getting me down
That she makes me think, makes me think,
That I try, that I try, that I'm trying too hard again

(And again, and again, and again, and again)
'Cause I'm trying too hard again
(And again, and again, and again, and again)
'Cause I'm trying too hard again
