For the First Time

Sittin' on my ass with the pencil to the page
I got noting left to lose, I got nothing left to gain
I'm like a roller coaster stoppin' at the end of the lane
Well, I guess I like the feeling when there's nothing on my brain

So I'll probably write a letter for the better of the worst
But I if I can find the meaning, well, then I can find the words
And if you ask, then I will tell you that I'm feeling just fine
'Cause I can't feel a thing because I'm empty inside

So won't you take me back to the place I used to know
And all the places that we used to go
And all the memories we left behind
And when you left, well, you just left me empty inside

You are the raven and I guess, I am the prey
I'm addicted to the drama and the problems anyway
So, I'll watch the sun go down and then I'll stay up all night
Just thinkin' to myself and wondering if the sun will rise

And in the morning when I wake up, wonder if a thing will change
'Cause it's coming back like a heart attack and it always feels the same
And I can't go on livin' day to day, well, it's like the prophecy
As I just hope there's other people feeling just like me

So won't you take me back to the place I used to know
And all the places that we used to go
And all the memories we left behind
And when you left, well, you just left me empty inside

So take me from this nightmare
I can't control myself
All I know, leave me right here
I guess it's just as well

If I could take back what I'd say
I want it anyway
All I know, all I've found
Is I keep on going down

So won't you take me back to the place I used to know
And all the places that we used to go
And all the memories we left behind
And when you left, well, you just left me empty inside

(Whoa)
Left me empty inside (whoa, whoa)
Left me empty inside (whoa, whoa)
Left me empty inside (whoa, whoa)
Left me empty inside
