17 Introspective Lyrics From Luke Hemmings’ boy EP to Use as Your Next Instagram Caption

Luke Hemmings may be best known as the frontman of the Australian pop-rock band 5 Seconds of Summer, but he's proven himself to be just as capable as a solo artist.

Today, the singer-songwriter and guitarist released his latest EP, boy, with much of the story told through the lens of a man traveling the world on tour, with very little to ground him to reality. It's a thoughtful exploration of being far from home and realizing he's not just a boy anymore, and coming to grips with what that truly means. We love all seven of its striking tracks, and if you feel the same, keep scrolling to discover its best lyrics to try out as Instagram captions.
