Five Years

Try and pretend
To remember when you're scared, you say
Do you think that we could be
These people who lose everything
And don't forget, pretend you're scared
We took it well

I'm finally at the place I'm staying
I finally have a place to call my own
I'm trying not to lose my reasons
I'm planning to remember all I know
You know if I lose my fear it comes back
I hope he knows I tried

Try and pretend
To erase the past five years you lived
Now, do you think it would be the same
Would you make the same mistakes or
Would you learn?
But then you lose
So what for you?

I'm finally at the place I'm staying
I finally have a place to call my own
I'm trying not to lose my reasons
I'm planning to remember all I know
You know if I lose my fear it comes back
I hope he knows I tried

Oh, I tried
Oh, I tried

And do you think we could be
The kind that takes everything
For better or worse
Would we say
You know we made the same mistakes
'Cause the ones that really got us here
And now don't you think that we would change
We always make the same mistakes
The ones that win
They run this way

I'm finally at the place I'm staying
I finally have a place to call my own
I'm trying not to lose my reasons
I'm planning to remember all I know
You know if I lose my fear it comes back
Hope he knows I tried

Oh, I tried
Tried
Tried
Oh, I tried
