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
Maybe growing up to fast
Was the only choice I had
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, oldest

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 no fun
Maybe growing up to fast
Was the only choice I had
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, oldest
I can make the way for you
No, I don't mind jumping first
I could wait up if you want me to
'Cause that's just the way it works
Where you're oldest
Wish I wasn't controlling
It's the weight I'm holding
Trying to live up to the girl they see
'Cause I know 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
