first times

Running low on my know how  
The flip came so quick  
Now my heels won't unstick  
My head hit the ground and  
I'm finding out now that  
Far-fetched isn't too far to catch  
First times can come any day  
 
Sudden change in the script  
The lines should make me sick  
But I say them anyway  
The tables can turn and  
I'm starting to learn that  
All falls aren't that bad at all  
First times can come any day  
 
Say what you say  
I'm in it today and I'll give it away  
It's not such a crime  
To break broken lines  
When my face starts to shine  
First times can come any day  
 
"Out there" is a place that we made out of doubt
"Too soon" is a phrase that we use to explain; we're afraid,  
Led by a crowd lost in mazes  
Keep us around simple places  
Simple heads, simple faces  
Breaking out takes making changes  
First times can come any day  
 
"Cant" is a word that never could; if we should  
"Could" is a word that asks if we would
But still we say "it's too far away"  
There's gray between logical meanings  
There's a reason for changing the season  
 
First times can come any day
