“Not in the Same Way” is the eighth song of 5 Seconds of Summer’s fourth album CALM. It’s a chaotic love story about the toxicity in the relationship, with drinking and drugs blindsiding the fact that they’re not on the same page in the relationship.
The song almost tells a story — As lead vocalist...
[Chorus: Luke, All]
Drink all night, never sleep
You say, "Go," I won't leave
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Rip my heart out and leave
On the floor, watch me bleed
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
[Verse 1: Luke]
Not today
Mascara's runnin' down your face again
I can feel it comin' down on me
Hurricane insert name
We're good at this game, game
[Pre-Chorus: Luke, Luke & Ashton]
We fuck, and we fight, then you call me a psycho
I walk out the door, but you won't let me let go
Turn right around, throwin' rocks at your window
But I can't forget you and I'll always let you
[Chorus: Luke, All, Luke & Calum]
Drink all night, never sleep
You say, "Go," I won't leave
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Rip my heart out and leave
On the floor, watch me bleed
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Drink all night, never sleep
You say, "Go," I won't leave
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Rip my heart out and leave
On the floor, watch me bleed
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
[Verse 2: Luke, Luke & Michael]
Not today
I'm wakin' up to my mistakes again
I know you love to point them out
Baby, I'm sick of sadness and you're sick of Xanax
We're good at this game, game
[Pre-Chorus: Luke, Luke & Ashton]
We fuck, and we fight, then you call me a psycho
I walk out the door, but you won't let me let go
Turn right around, throwin' rocks at your window
But I can't forget you and I'll always let you
[Chorus: Luke, All, Luke & Calum]
Drink all night, never sleep
You say, "Go," I won't leave
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Rip my heart out and leave
On the floor, watch me bleed
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Drink all night, never sleep
You say, "Go," I won't leave
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Rip my heart out and leave
On the floor, watch me bleed
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
[Post-Chorus: All]
Way
But not in the same way
Way
But not in the same way
[Bridge: Luke, Luke & Calum]
I don't ever wanna lie to you
But I can't say no to you
I know you think I'm bulletproof
But you know how to hurt me too
In the dark, we're black and white
In the morning, colourblind
Leave your mark with every bite
Then everything's alright
When you tell me you love me
Then you wanna leave me
Pouring your pills down the sink
Sayin', "It's not what you think"
Don't know if I love you
Don't know if I hate you
But I can't forget you and I'll always let you
[Chorus: Luke, All, Luke & Calum]
Drink all night, never sleep
You say, "Go," I won't leave
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Rip my heart out and leave
On the floor, watch me bleed
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Drink all night, never sleep
You say, "Go," I won't leave
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
Rip my heart out and leave
On the floor, watch me bleed
I love you, you love me
But not in the same way
[Post-Chorus: All]
Way
But not in the same way
Way
But not in the same way

This song came together in 30 minutes, except for the bridge. It was one of the most exciting in the room to write; it was almost like we couldn’t keep up with how quickly it was going. It’s a chaotic love story of the early days in a relationship and trying to figure out your counterpart.
On an Instagram livestream that drummer Ashton Irwin did on CALM’s one year anniversary, he explained:
So, Not In The Same Way, stylistically, links up with the song “Old Me”. They kind of earn the similar zone, they’re doing a hip-hop beat kind of thing. […] I think this shit was, melodically, pre...
This song was probably the quickest song written for CALM, with the main portion of it coming together in under an hour. It’s about a chaotic relationship, where you’ve already hurt your counterpart when you were just friends and you end up dealing with the issues in not the healthiest of ways. When...
