311 First Straw Lyrics

First Straw Lyrics

Album : Greatest Hits 93-03

Oh a whole new way of looking at
things
The way you react to phone rings
The way it feels when you just
let it flow
Sometimes I wonder just how it could be
You take every bit
before we see it off the rails
I think that you should know

You never
cease to amaze me
You keep me from going crazy
And that's one thing I know
for sure
Sometimes I see just how it all will be
Take every bit it's so
easy the first straw
And this I know for sure

(Chorus)
The first
straw
So small it seemed impossible
The next straw
Vanished like
shooting stars that fall
The last straw
There's no reason for getting
there at all
Yeah

No reason to take it there at
all
Yeah

The last straw can land in your mix
Your best day could
be apocalypse
Nobody pay attention to the first straw
It seems the last
one is all we ever saw
The first straw's a metaphore I pick up myself
It
tells me something by showing me something else
I think that you should
know

Chorus

No reason to take it there at
all
Yeah

Everyone reacts when it gets to the weight of breaking their
back
I won't let that be us cause the long side never gave
back
Yeah
