About

Steven Page says this about the song in their Greatest Hits album:

We wanted to write a song about a perfectionist who discovers the joy in failing – how he’s got to learn to fall before he learns to fly, and how that fall makes him feel a freedom he’s never felt before. I guess that’s why we remov...

Falling for the First Time Lyrics

[Intro]
(One time!)

[Verse 1]
I'm so cool, too bad I'm a loser
I'm so smart, too bad I can't get anything figured out
I'm so brave, too bad I'm a baby
I'm so fly, that's probably why it
Feels just like I'm falling for the first time

[Verse 2]
I'm so green, it's really amazing
I'm so clean, too bad I can't get all the dirt off of me (All the dirt off of me)
I'm so sane, it's driving me crazy
It's so strange, I can't believe it
Feels just like I'm falling for the first time

[Chorus 1]
Anyone perfect must be lying, anything easy has its cost
Anyone plain can be lovely, anyone loved can be lost
What if I lost my direction? What if I lost sense of time?
What if I nursed this infection? Maybe the worst is behind
It feels just like I'm falling for the first time
It feels just like I'm falling for the first time

[Verse 3]
I'm so chill, no wonder it's freezing
I'm so still, I just can't keep my fingers out of anything (Fingers out of anything)
I'm so thrilled to finally be failing
I'm so done, turn me over 'cause it
Feels just like I'm falling for the first time

[Chorus 2]
Anything plain can be lovely, anything loved can be lost
Maybe I lost my direction, what if our love is the cost?
Anyone perfect must be lying, anything easy has its cost
Anyone plain can be lovely, anyone loved can be lost
What if I lost my direction? What if I lost sense of time?
What if I nursed this infection? Maybe the worst is behind

[Outro]
(Maybe the worst is behind, maybe the worst is behind)
