The first time I felt heartache I was 12
I did my best to hide it well
It broke me but I’d never tell
Cos parents always seem so big and tough
I watched mine fall right out of love
Guess sometimes it’s just not enough
It’s a different house, different day,
seeing the car pulling away, feel the tears run down my face
Holding my mother trying to smile, telling my father bye for a while
Then they told me
We know it hurts, and we feel the pain
We’ve heard you ask but you’re not to blame
When you go to school, they won’t change your name
Don’t you worry what all the children say
Thought it breaks our hearts, just know we’ll never be worlds apart
It’ll be alright, even though you doubt it
We’re still a family just living in.. different houses
Heartache shows itself in many ways
My brother let his out in rage
My sister never said a word
It’s a different house, different day,
seeing the car pulling away, I’m back on the other side
Holding my father trying to smile, telling my mother bye for a while
Then they told me
We know it hurts, and we feel the pain
We’ve heard you ask but you’re not to blame
When you go to school, they won’t change your name
Don’t you worry what all the children say
Thought it breaks our hearts, just know we’ll never be worlds apart
It’ll be alright, even though you doubt it
We’re still a family just living in.. different houses
Ohhh Different Houses
Ohhh
We know your hurt, and we feel the pain
We’ve heard you ask but you’re not to blame
When you go to school, they won’t change your name
Don’t you worry what all the children say
Thought it breaks our hearts, just know we’ll never be worlds apart
It’ll be alright, even though you doubt it
We’re still a family just living in.. different houses
