charlie puth - don't meet your heroes (lyrics):

I was young and so obsessed
All my friends said you're the best
So I just assumed you were nice
I love the way you were a star
I love the way you play guitar
You don't even look like you're tryin'

I wish that we never met
Every day, I'm still filled with regret
But then again, it made me who I am
There ain't a damn thing I would change except

Don't meet your heroes, they're not as they seem
I just should've kept you on my TV screen
Oh, I learned my lesson when they put me through hell
No, don't meet your heroes without knowing yourself

It felt like I lived in your dream
Did I hurt your self-esteem?
I hope I make it in your memoir
I don't mean to be a pessimist
But I would never say you're heaven-sent
You thought I was lightning for your jar

I wish that we never met
Every day, I'm still filled with regret
But then again, it made me who I am
There ain't a damn thing I would change except

Don't meet your heroes, they're not as they seem
I just should've kept you on my TV screen
Oh, I learned my lesson when they put me through hell
No, don't meet your heroes without knowing yourself

Don't meet your heroes, they're not as they seem
I just should've kept you on my TV screen
Oh, I learned my lesson when they put me through hell
No, don't meet your heroes without knowing yourself

Oh, knowing yourself
I learned my lesson when they put me through hell
No, don't meet your heroes without knowing yourself
Knowing yourself
Yes, I've, yes, I've, yes, I've learned
