Careworn - Gnarly Rae Jepsen

Careworn - Gnarly Rae Jepsen

I won't have kids
I'll put no one else through this
If life starts with a kiss
It's your job to seal my lips

I'll never be a father
I'll be no one's aspiration
I'll never make the man I wanna be
'cause life is an affliction

I resent my brain for the need to sleep
I resent my nerves for the need to feel
I resent my lungs for the need to breathe

But ill never tire of your bed-side gaze
And ill never tire of your sleepy eyes
Tired is all I am these days
I guess I said I would change
But I'm stuck in my ways

Youll never have children
Youll have me but you'll cry when
Your entire fucking future
Has been predetermined
I'll never be a grandpa
I can't put this through anyone else
I think ill be a cool uncle at best
but no one should feel what I've felt

I resent my brain for the need to sleep
I resent my nerves for the need to feel
I resent myself for you and me

And one day
One day I'll wake up
And Ill fell my age
For

Jepsen
