Older

[00:01.43] I used to shut my door

[00:04.08] While my mother screamed in the kitchen

[00:07.81] I'd turn the music up, get high and try not to listen to every little fight

[00:17.92] 'Cause neither one was right

[00:21.62] I swore I'd never be like them

[00:25.37] But I was just a kid back then

[00:28.56] The older I get the more that I see

[00:32.06] My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

[00:35.78] 'Cause loving is hard, it don't always work

[00:39.54] You just try your best not to get hurt

[00:43.55] I used to be mad but now I know

[00:47.28] Sometimes it's better to let someone go

[00:51.02] It just hadn't hit me yet

[00:54.75] The older I get

[00:56.62] I used to wonder why, why they could never be happy

[01:03.83] I used to close my eyes and pray for a whole 'nother family

[01:10.76] Where everything was fine, one that felt like mine

[01:17.92] I swore I'd never be like them

[01:21.66] But I was just a kid back then

[01:24.58] The older I get the more that I see

[01:28.32] My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

[01:32.03] And loving is hard, it don't always work

[01:36.03] You just try your best not to get hurt

[01:39.75] I used to be mad but now I know

[01:43.51] Sometimes it's better to let someone go

[01:47.25] It just hadn't hit me yet

[01:50.98] The older I get

[02:06.17] The older I get the more that I see

[02:09.62] My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

[02:13.61] And loving is hard, it don't always work

[02:17.33] You just try your best not to get hurt

[02:21.09] I used to be mad but now I know

[02:24.79] Sometimes it's better to let someone go

[02:28.53] It just hadn't hit me yet

[02:32.25] The older I get
