Mistakes

Stone cold as we hit the high of out lives No more, fell trap to the bite of the serpent's eyes I lied too much, couldn't tell you the truth One too many mistakes made my heart black and blue Couldn't tell you to do all the things we wanted to Time of our lives, getting too high Chances run out, I'm on thin ice Don't you cry, babe, we'll be fine Something short of paradise Inching away while the song plays What's on your mind? What's on my plate? We could both use an escape Darling, what's one more mistake? Time of our lives, getting too high Chances run out, I'm on thin ice Don't you cry, babe, we'll be fine Something short of paradise Inching away while the song plays What's on your mind? What's on my plate? We could both use an escape Darling, what's one more mistake? Couldn't tell you to do all the things we wanted to To hold you back would just ruin your moment I need to get through These chains are holding me down I need to hold you one more time And say goodbye Truly, these days seem to get longer But I am still not absolved of my shortcomings as the years stack behind us Relationships, relationships, a word that makes me weary Alone, in the nighttime, staring at my eyelids Hoping to find some sort of constellation In my psyche And let a drink be poured out for the daily method actors Who played their characters so well that they forgot themselves So complex, I can hardly cry I don't know how to make it right Broke too soon, left me out to dry I tried to hide, but I won't lie Not this time, done too many things Just trust me, baby, we won't die I promise that I'll make tonight The best one of your life The best one of your life
