Matt Nathanson - First Time Lyrics
Im ready to embrace this I amIm ready for repairIve got so many layers left by amateur painters who covered over what was thereI stuffed myself sick on your memorya beautiful mess that we madebut Im so tired of being inspired only when things slip awayYou told me time would strip it all free and leave me bone dryYou told me time would strip it all freebut Im no better then when I left here the first timeIm ready to erase this I amIm ready to beginspent myself trying to change all of the beauty we madejust to want it all back againAnd with clouds moving inwell this hardly looks like the same moonand with the leaves all gone the trees that once stood strongnow look pinched and cruel.You told me time would strip it all free and leave me bone dryYou told me time would strip it all freebut Im no better then when I left here the first timebut Im no better then when I left here the first,first timefirst time.You told me time would strip it all free and leave me bone dryYou told me time would strip it all freebut Im no better then when I left here the first timewell Im no better then when I left here the first time,well Im no better then when I left here the first time,time, time, time.
