The first things we want are the last we receive
Hope's the first thing I want you just have to believe
But life's winding road can disorientate
My sight's on the outcome but I'll have to wait
I never really heard all the things that you say
I never really cared for the games that you play
I never really heard all them things at all

I said that I was doing fine
You said that you could see 
Straight through my lies
And when you looked in my eyes
There was another story locked deep inside

All the time that you knew all about it
And the ways that we circled around it
I didn't even know what to think
Didn't care how low I would sink
And I couldn't even bring myself to speak
You thought I'd never fall so far from reach
Well, the apple never falls far from the tree
I couldn't console myself

This ain't an everyday feelin'
An everyday feelin' 
My love
It's hard to believe it
I know

The last things we want are the first we receive
Well you'd better step back I've got tricks up my 
sleeve
But life's blinding lights can disorientate
My heart with the outcome but I'll have to wait
Been told I'll have to try and take it day by day
I never really listen to what people say
I never really cared for their words at all

I've heard it all 1000 times
Everybody just trying to read my mind
They never even realize
That I never even had to think twice

This ain't an everyday feelin'
An everyday feelin' 
My love
This ain't an everyday feelin'
It's hard to believe it
I know

We've all had to wait so long
For good advice that turned out wrong
Where we go to prove who we are
Broken are the hopes of some
The cornered either fight or run
Where we go to prove who we are now
