older

i used to shut my door

while my mother screamed in the kitchen

i'd turn the music up

get high and try not to listen to every little fight

cause neither one was right

i swore i'd never be like them

but i was just a kid back then

the older i get, the more that i see

my parents arent heroes, they're just like me

cause loving is hard, it dont always work

you just try your best not to get hurt

i used to be mad but now i know

sometimes its better to let someone go

it just hadnt hit me yet

the older i get

i used to wonder why

why they could never be happy

i used to close my eyes

and pray for a whole another family

where everything was fine

one that felt like mine

i swore i'd never be like them

but i was just a kid back then

the older i get, the more that i see

my parents arent heroes, they're just like me

and loving is hard, it dont always work

you just try your best not to get hurt

i used to be mad but now i know

sometimes its better to let someone go

it just hadnt hit me yet

the older i get
