Album: Set Yourself On Fire (2005)

The First Five Times


The first time, in your backyard
Underneath the plastic sheeting
Outside, it was pouring
And we were drunk as shit

Next time, at a party
When all our friends were there
There's nothing like their mattresses
Underneath the stair

The third time, in the doorway
Lights all on around us
And the audience beside us
And the old man watching from a tree

Fourth time, I said that's it
You've agreed to give me everything
Now I've got to ask you one thing
Keep doing that forever

Fifth time in your bedroom
And finally, we rested
And you leaned upon your elbow
And began to speak to me

But you stopped yourself and kissed me
And I grabbed your lips and told you
I know, I know, I know
I feel the same as you

And everyday, it's changed since then
In every way, I've changed since then
And everyday, it's changed since then
In every way, I've changed since then

Driven outside
I've driven you
Driven outside
I've driven you
