Lyrics
I'm five years behind on my five year plan
I am lagging five years behind my planned life trajectory.
I'm too young to die old enough to panic
I am not too old to die, but I am at an age where anxiety about the future sets in.
What am I doing with my life
I am reflecting on the purpose and direction of my life.
I'm five years behind on my five year plan
I am still struggling to catch up with the goals set in my five-year plan.
In five more will I even still be standing
I question if I will still be standing or successful in another five years.
I think I'm running out of time
I feel a sense of urgency as if time is slipping away.
I can't keep lying through my teeth
I cannot continue deceiving others.
To make my parents proud of me
I pretend to be successful to earn my parents' approval.
When I don't really have it figured out
I admit that I haven't figured out my life despite the facade.
I just never want to let them down
I fear disappointing my parents, hence the act.
Was hoping by now
I anticipated achieving significant milestones by now.
That I would reach some high
I expected to reach a high point in my life.
But maybe that's the only reason why
Maybe the pressure to succeed is the only reason for my delay.
I'm five years behind on my five year plan
I am still struggling to catch up with the goals set in my five-year plan (repeated).
I'm too young to die old enough to panic
I am not too old to die, but I am at an age where anxiety about the future sets in (repeated).
What am I doing with my life
I am reflecting on the purpose and direction of my life (repeated).
I'm five years behind on my five year plan
I am still struggling to catch up with the goals set in my five-year plan (repeated).
In five more will I even still be standing
I question if I will still be standing or successful in another five years (repeated).
I think I'm running out of time
I feel a sense of urgency as if time is slipping away (repeated).
I'd like to think it'd make a difference
I hope that changing my actions will have a positive impact.
If I got to do things different
I wish for a different outcome, but it may be unrealistic.
But that's only wishful thinking
I acknowledge that wishful thinking might not change my situation.
So if I've done all I can
If I've done my best, but I'm still behind, I must accept it.
I guess I'm five years behind on my five year plan
I am still struggling to catch up with the goals set in my five-year plan (repeated).
I hope one day I get to understand it
I hope that one day I will comprehend the reasons behind my delay.
Maybe that's something I'll get right
Understanding my situation might be a goal I achieve in the future.
I'm five years behind on my five year plan
I am still struggling to catch up with the goals set in my five-year plan (repeated).
I'm too young to die old enough to panic
I am not too old to die, but I am at an age where anxiety about the future sets in (repeated).
What am I doing with my life
I am reflecting on the purpose and direction of my life (repeated).
I'm five years behind on my five year plan
I am still struggling to catch up with the goals set in my five-year plan (repeated).
In five more will I even still be standing
I question if I will still be standing or successful in another five years (repeated).
I think I'm running out of time
I feel a sense of urgency as if time is slipping away (repeated).
