Love Is A First Lyrics - We Are The Same - Tragically Hip

I've been interpreted and shrunk 

I've been as touchless as a drunk 

This is as bad as or worse, as bad as or worse 

This is as bad as or worse, as bad as or worse 

Love is a curse 

That he who would own it deserves 

Love is a curse 

You get what you give not deserve 

I know, I know this is all just first blurts 

That he who would try to own it deserves it 

And I know it's got nothing to do with "deserves it" 

It's just that you don't just blurt "love is a curse" 

Love is a curse, love is a curse 

You don't just blurt "love is a curse"

Though I've been too weak to escape 

And I don't have the strength to pluck a grape 

Though it's as bad as or worse, as bad as or worse 

Though it's as bad as or worse, as bad as or worse 

Love is a first 

I've felt the dull fangs of the truth 

Love is a first 

I've heard the music they torture to 

Love is a first 

I saw Old Power enforced 

Love is a first 

I was more the Devil of Darkness' horse

I drank the poison from the source 

And smoked that murder, fell on the floor 

And watched the near-death of your TV 

And dreamed its darkly nurtured dreams 

And drained my ocean of its worth 

Lke God's representatives on the earth 

Learned how to hurt and how not to hurt 

And the thing you taught me, what I learned? 

Love is a first 

Though it's as bad as or worse 

Love is a first 

As bad as or worse 

Love is a first 

As bad as or worse 

Love is a first 

As bad as or worse 

Love is a curse 

That he who would own it deserves 

Love is a first 

Though it occurs and occurs 

Love is a curse 

You get what you give not deserve 

Love is a first 

Love just occurs and occurs 

I drank the poison from the source 

And smoked that murder, fell on the floor 

And watched the near-death of your TV 

And dreamed its darkly nurtured dreams 

And drained my ocean of its worth 

Lke God's representatives on the earth 

Learned how to hurt and how not to hurt 

And the thing you taught me, what I learned? 

Love is a first
