There's A First Time For Everything

Day by day it’s lost on me

How every day I’m supposed to be the same

When I feel so many different ways


My months ran dry then blurred away

For all you know I burn through most my days

& ya think that’s doin’ okay

It’s okay

Who needs friends now anyway?


Now, all I know are love rabbit holes

With a hand-me-down heart that once stood to unfold

& shoulder off the cold


Relapse, retract the tactics only

Temporarily conferral me straight

Like a twist of someone else’s fate

All the same, I feel distant with every turning day


& when I wavered in

Cloaked in thickest skin you were laid in wait

& when I did confess

It was only to press what made me lay awake

What else could I say?


Well, the aftermath subtracts what I could

Add to ticking time taxing away

When I didn’t know the weight


& the Everlong song stuck in my head

Effervescent long has passed its stay

& got dragged in 17 different ways

Ricocheted off every bedroom interface


& when I wavered in

Cloaked in thickest skin you were laid in wait

& when I did confess

It was only to press what made me lay awake

What else could I say?


Now a long time gone, you’ve gone away

Looming In & out of fashion, out of pace

& I’m thinkin’ of runnin’ away

I’m ashamed of my own reactionary ways


& when I wavered in

Cloaked in thickest skin you were laid in wait

& when I did confess

It was only to press what made me lay awake

What else could I say?

What else could I say?

What else could I say?

There’s a first time for everything
