“Older” is about the hardships of growing up with parents who fought and realizing that sometimes love isn’t always perfect. Sasha vows to never be like her parents, who fought when she was younger, but now has learned as she has grown that sometimes it’s necessary to accept the pain that comes with love and heartbreak. She uses her personal experiences with heartbreak to relate to how her parents felt back when she was younger. Overall the song is about how perspective changes as a person grows, whether it be about the world or love.
