Текст песни Heirloom Pain - NIKI

Build a pillow barricade, so the ghosts can't get to me
20-something instincts feel like a deadbeat dad
Never there when it counts and puts you right in therapy
Life is a gamble, baby, and you'll have to live with that

Oh, but I'll be fine 'cause I always end up
Just fine, then I call a friend up
That's just how it is

And I wake up tired and vaguely sore
Stir a pot when I'm feeling bored
Full-sending a lot, only halfway sure
Walking around with heirloom pain
Dad's temper and mom's mistakes
And always afraid to fall flat on my face
Yet doing it anyway
I'm doing it anyway

Walls up to the skies, many men have marched around to no avail
There's Achilles, then there's his godforsaken heel

I do the dishes and tend the garden
Soften up where I used to harden
Then take a moonlit walk (one, two, three, four)

And I wake up tired and vaguely sore
Stir a pot when I'm feeling bored
Full-sending a lot, only halfway sure
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Walking around with heirloom pain
Grandma left, but her heartache stayed
And now I'm always afraid to take up space
I'm doing it anyway

I'm doing it anyway
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh

People fall in love and mess up
And have kids who fall in love and mess up
Who have kids that fall in love
And have you

People fall in love and mess up
We all fall in love and mess up
You will fall in love and mess up too
