First Time

Lyrics

I'm ready to embrace this I am
 I'm ready for repair
 I've got so many layers
 Left by amateur painters who covered over what was there
 I stuffed myself sick on your memory
 A beautiful mess that we made
 But I'm so tired of being inspired only when things slip away
 They told me time would strip it all free and leave me bone dry
 They told me time would strip it all free
 But I'm no better then when I left here the first time
 I'm ready to erase this I am
 I'm ready to begin
 Spent myself trying to change all of the beauty we made
 Just to want it all back again
 And with clouds moving in
 Well this hardly looks like the same moon
 And with the leaves all gone the trees that once stood strong
 Now look pinched and cruel
 They told me time would strip it all free and leave me bone dry
 They told me time would strip it all free
 But I'm no better then when I left here the first time
 But I'm no better then when I left here the first
 First time
 First time
 They told me time would strip it all free and leave me bone dry
 They told me time would strip it all free
 But I'm no better then when I left here the first time
 Well I'm no better then when I left here the first time
 Well I'm no better then when I left here the first time
 Time, time, time
