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

[00:07.65] I'd turn the music up, get high and try not to listen

[00:14.82] To every little fight, 'cause neither one was right

[00:22.52] I swore I'd never be like them

[00:26.25] But I was just a kid back then

[00:28.90] The older I get the more that I see

[00:32.62] My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

[00:36.34] And loving is hard, it don't always work

[00:40.06] You just try your best not to get hurt

[00:43.77] I used to be mad but now I know

[01:18.76] I swore I'd never be like them

[01:22.48] But I was just a kid back then

[01:25.15] The older I get the more that I see

[01:28.87] My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

[01:32.85] And loving is hard, it don't always work

[01:36.57] You just try your best not to get hurt

[01:40.03] I used to be mad but now I know

[01:44.03] Sometimes it's better to let someone go

[01:47.75] It just hadn't hit me yet

[01:51.46] The older I get

[02:06.28] The older I get the more that I see

[02:10.27] My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

[02:13.99] And loving is hard, it don't always work

[02:17.71] You just try your best not to get hurt

[02:21.43] I used to be mad but now I know

[02:25.14] Sometimes it's better to let someone go

[02:29.13] It just hadn't hit me yet
