Sasha Alex Sloan (born in 1995, age 28 years) is an American singer-songwriter. Her debut album, Only Child, was released on October 16, 2020. 

歌曲「成長」是關於莎夏·斯隆悲傷的童年。她的父母離婚前經常吵架。縱使小時候的她沒辦法了解為甚麼，現在的她漸漸了解他們不是英雄而是一般的人，一般會經歷困難日子的人。

The song "older" is about Sasha Alex Sloan's sad childhood. Before her parents got divorced, they often fought with each other. Though she couldn’t understand why when she was a child, she gradually realised that they aren’t heroes but humans who will have tough days.

Let's quickly play the song(https://youtu.be/r1Fx0tqK5Z4) and learn some great words and sentences from it.

I used to shut my door while my mother screamed in the kitchen

I'd turn the music up, get high and try not to listen

To every little fight, 'cause neither one was right

🎵🎵🎵

I swore I'd never be like them

But I was just a kid back then

🎵🎵🎵

The older I get the more that I see

My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me

And loving is hard, it don't always work

You just try your best not to get hurt

🎵🎵🎵

I used to be mad but now I know

Sometimes it's better to let someone go

It just hadn't hit me yet

The older I get

🎵🎵🎵

I used to wonder why, why they could never be happy

I used to close my eyes and pray for a whole 'nother family

Where everything was fine, one that felt like mine
