First Song (Live)

No one needs to tell me

How to get get get down

But won't somebody show me

How to get back up?

I thought about killing my landlord but he was pretty nice

Instead, I paid my rent on time

As often as I could

I've been making strange friends in the desert

Yeah, they love Jesus and America too

It ain't as bad as it sounds

Someday I'll explain it to you

It's not that I mind sleeping

Alone in the grass

It's just that I've been dreaming since, well

Maybe I ain't woke up yet

But nothing's been quite the same since you shot yourself

I don't know if you believe in ghosts

I'd hope you'd haunt me if you were one

I've been trying not to steal from everybody I know but

So far that's impossible!

But here in the desert, somehow I hope that someday it won't

Be that way for me

No, it won't be that way for me anymore
