[Verse 1]
Guess I never gave up playing golden child
Don't drink and don’t do drugs
So I'm not cool enough
But I hid you in my room when mom and dad were fighting back when we were young
Wouldn't let you hear too much
Yeah, I’m good at that stuff

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe growing up too fast
Was the only choice I had

[Chorus]
Wish I wasn't controlling
It's the weight I'm holding
Trying to live up to the girl they see
'Cause I knew somebody had to be
Steady, safe, and focused
If I'm not sure, won't show 'em
When I fall, I feel all eyes on me
But I guess somebody had to be oldest

[Verse 2]
Call me when your high school boyfriend breaks your heart
You know I’ll pick up
I’m the one you trust
But you don't wanna tell me ’bout that party last night where you got too drunk
You think that I'll judge
Makes me feel like I'm no fun

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe growing up too fast
Was the only choice I had
[Chorus]
Wish I wasn't controlling
It’s the weight I'm holding
Trying to live up to the girl they see
'Cause I knew somebody had to be
Steady, safe, and focused
If I'm not sure, won't show 'em
When I fall, I feel all eyes on me
But I guess somebody had to be oldest

[Bridge]
I can light the way for you
No, I don't mind jumping first
I can wait up if you want me to
'Cause that's just the way it works when you're oldest

[Chorus]
Wish I wasn't controlling
It's the weight I'm holding
Trying to live up to the girl they see
'Cause I knew somebody had to be
Steady, safe, and focused
If I'm not sure, won't show 'em
When I fall, I feel all eyes on me
But I guess somebody had to be oldest
