Cold War Kids - First

First by Cold War Kids Song lyrics | Music video

Treating that right, broken so bad
You made a vow, never get mad
You play the game, though it's unfair
They're all the same, who can compare?
FIRST you lose trust, then you get worried
Night after night, ball after call
Dropping like flies, who woke you up
On the front lawn, smackers turn out
It's not your house, where'd you go wrong?
FIRST you get hurt, then you feel sorry!

Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth
Hold me as a veteran, who eat the dirt
I am not the lucky one, I do not deserve
Way you went forever when doing it FIRST
FIRST you get hurt, then you feel sorry!

Then comes a time when it's short line
You turn into a round, get a re-ride
Call it a dog, not in his soul
Ticking up clocks, gravity's pull
FIRST you get close, then you get buried

Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth
Hold me as a veteran, who eat the dirt
I am not the lucky one, I do not deserve
Way you went forever when doing it FIRST
FIRST you get hurt, then you feel sorry!

You're going silent, the silent treatment
It's not a valid, no, don't deny what you make
You get excited, you got excited
You got a feeling for, at least you can pretend
You wanna light it, you wanna light it
You wanna light it now and can't afford more things
You get excited, you got excited!

Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth
Hold me as a veteran, who eat the dirt
I am not the lucky one, I do not deserve
Way you went forever when doing it FIRST
Flying like a cannonball, falling to the earth
Hold me as a veteran, who eat the dirt
I am not the lucky one, I do not deserve
Way you went forever when doing it FIRST

FIRST you get hurt, then you feel worried
FIRST you get close, then you get worried
FIRST you get hurt, then you feel worried
FIRST you get close, then you get worried

You wanna light it, you wanna light it
You wanna light it now and can't afford more things
You wanna light it, you wanna light it
You wanna light it now and can't afford more things
