[00:00.74] I used to shut my door while my mother screamed in the kitchen

[00:07.91] I'd turn the music up, get high and try not to listen

[00:14.02] To every little fight, 'cause neither one was right

[00:22.00] I swore I'd never be like them

[00:25.73] But I was just a kid back then

[00:28.38] The older I get the more that I see

[00:31.83] My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

[00:35.82] And loving is hard, it don't always work

[00:39.53] You just try your best not to get hurt

[00:43.26] I used to be mad but now I know

[01:18.05] I swore I'd never be like them

[01:21.77] But I was just a kid back then

[01:24.70] The older I get the more that I see

[01:28.15] My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

[01:32.13] And loving is hard, it don't always work

[01:35.85] You just try your best not to get hurt

[01:39.57] I used to be mad but now I know

[01:43.55] Sometimes it's better to let someone go

[01:47.27] It just hadn't hit me yet

[01:50.98] The older I get

[02:06.13] The older I get the more that I see

[02:09.59] My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

[02:13.30] And loving is hard, it don't always work

[02:17.02] You just try your best not to get hurt

[02:20.73] I used to be mad but now I know

[02:24.19] Sometimes it's better to let someone go
