Oh a whole new way of looking at things

The way you react to phone rings

The way it feels when you let it flow



Sometimes I wonder just how it could be

To take care of it 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

To take care of it it's so easy

The first straw

And this I know for sure



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



No reason to take it there at all

Yea



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 straws a metaphor I pick up myself

It tells me something by showing me something else



I think that you should know

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



Everyone reacts when it gets to the weight of breaking the back

I won't let that be us cuz the loss I'd never get past

Yea



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



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
