about

This song's about being a virgin while everyone else you know isn't one, coming to terms with it, and moving forward instead of letting self consciousness hold you back.

lyrics

And 5 years of waiting
and 5 years alone
I'm still a virgin
would you let me go
Took me 5 years to realize
and 5 years to know
that life is too short
just to wait on your own.

But what the fuck it just doesn't make sense
Let's just, let's just be friends.

It's funny when I ask they never tell me something else
"I don't know man it just sort of happens by itself"
While all my friends are fucking eachother on the floor
I'm stuck here telling her she's not a fucking whore
I tell her to move on and walk on out the door
because the love that she had is not there anymore
Boyfriend after boyfriend it's the same old fucking chore
Being this alone is just such a bore..
Such a fucking bore!

The only thing you have to lose is your virginity
Stop listening to limes and just talk to me.
