As an adult now I realized these lyrics are so meaningful

@KateU11

Andrea Vega Villanueva They always had really good lyrics, I can see as an adult as well! :)

@evolutionofwords

I’ve been saying this since I was a teenager(Nicks age) & remember being so upset about it at the time. With songs like ‘Take a breath’ from the self entitled album. Their lyrics had so much depth. However, people looked at them as kids & just shrugged them aside because they were with Disney.

They were speaking to us about mental illness at such a young age in such a brave and encouraging way. That song meant a lot to me growing up.
