First Time For Everything

There's a first time for everything
For the good and bad
That's probably why I got
Addicted to this razor blade in my hand

Not to it itself
But to the things it does
It makes me feel nothing
Bu something at the same time
And it fulfills my urges
To see blood

There's a first time for everything
That's probably why 
I'm  addicted to these pills I've overdosed on 3 times
They're killing me
But they seem to be the only thing that's keeping me alive

There's a first time for everything
So I made the choice of trusting you
And I'm glad I did
Because I found out
You're broken too
I wasn't alone
You showed me
Angels are broken too

There's a first time for everything
And maybe that's why
I gave up my addictions
For you and mini us
Because there are better things in life
Than the demons inside
