5 Seconds Of Summer – Old Me

5 Seconds of Summer – Old Me Lyrics

[Intro: Luke] Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me
Glad you didn’t listen when the world was tryna slow me
No one could control me, left my lovers lonely
Had to fuck it up before I really got to know me

[Verse 1: Luke] Never a night alone
Anywhere you wanna go
Woke up in the mornin’ wearin’ someone else’s clothes
Pictures in my phone
With people I don’t know
Woke up in the mornin’, how the hell did I make it home?
[Pre-Chorus: Luke] And I wonder how long I can keep it up
But I wonder if I’d ever, if I’d ever get enough
And I did some shit I never should have done
Ayy, ayy
I would do it over now, I’d do it over
[Chorus: Luke & All] Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me
Glad you didn’t listen when the world was tryna slow me
No one could control me, left my lovers lonely
Had to fuck it up before I really got to know me
Ayy, ayy
All the mistakes I made, I made, I made, I made
Would have been the price I paid, I paid, I paid, I paid
Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me
Had to fuck it up before I really got to know me
[Verse 2: Luke] Another round, here we go
Going in blow for blow
Look into the mirror, takin’ punches that I throw
I’m constantly reminded
Of all the compromises
All the people from the past who have a hard time letting go, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Luke] And I wonder how long I can keep it up
But I wonder if I’d ever, if I’d ever get enough
And I did some shit I never should have done
Ayy, ayy
I would do it over now, I’d do it over
[Chorus: Luke & All] Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me
Glad you didn’t listen when the world was tryna slow me
No one could control me, left my lovers lonely
Had to fuck it up before I really got to know me
Ayy, ayy
All the mistakes I made, I made, I made, I made
Would have been the price I paid, I paid, I paid, I paid
Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me
Had to fuck it up before I really got to know me
Ayy, ayy
[Bridge: Luke] Devil at my door
Got me knockin’, knockin’, knockin’ on the other side
Ashes on the floor
But I’m walkin’, walkin’, walkin’ out of here alive
[Chorus: Luke, with Calum & All] Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me
Glad you didn’t listen when the world was tryna slow me (The world was tryna slow me, yeah)
No one could control me, left my lovers lonely (Lonely)
Had to fuck it up before I really got to know me
Ayy, ayy
All the mistakes I made, I made, I made, I made
Would have been the price I paid, I paid, I paid, I paid (Paid)
Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me (Yeah)
Had to fuck it up before I really got to know me
Ayy, ayy
