First Words Lyrics by Haggard Cat

Common Sense Holiday

2020

I don’t pick my fights they pick me
And all your words they stick to me
The more we try the less there’s a winner
My blood runs thin, but my skin is thinner

It’s a sign when we’re falling in line
That our kind is a dying breed
You can try playing with the facts short-term
But you won’t succeed, but you know

At my best I’m still your worst
And of them all, these words came first
Hold me up, don’t hold me back
Today my brain’s under attack

It’s hell, I’m feeling so angry with myself
For the damage I’m doing to my health
And you feed me all I know with your own special twist
I want to defend myself but resist, it’s hell

At my best I’m still your worst
And of them all, these words came
At my best I’m still your worst
And of them all, these words came first

Take a breath, take a rest, you don’t know what is best
Take a breath, take a rest, take a hold
Take a breath, take a rest, you don’t know what is best
Take a breath, take a rest, take a hold
Take a breath, take a rest, you don’t know what is best
Take a breath, take a rest, take a hold
Don’t hold me back
Take a breath, take a rest, you don’t know what is best
Take a breath, take a rest, take control

At my best I’m still your worst
And of them all, these words came
At my best I’m still your worst
And of them all, these words came first
Hold me up, don’t hold me back
Today my brain’s under attack
