Mistakes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Had to try the yellow grass
I'm so glad you took me back
Cause only you can make me so great again
In the ring I'm losing ground
Knock me out I hear ’em count
But you put me on my feet and push me to win
And like a broken half a charm it don't feel right
When we are apart we make the light
And I promise I won't mess it up this time
Please don't let me make the same mistakes, yeah
Mistakes yeah, mistakes
Break the line and end it in a train wreck
A train wreck, like always
Lost in space it's dark and cold
A billion stars but I'm alone
But your gravity helped me to descend
Treading and to tired to move
Drowning in the lake then you
Throw your line and reel me back in again
And like a broken half a charm it don't feel right
When we are apart we make the light
And I promise I won't mess it up this time
Please don't let me make the same mistakes yeah
Mistakes yeah, mistakes
Break the line and end it in a train wreck
A train wreck, like always
We finally made it through our darkest storm
Darkest night, baby
And I don't wanna make the same mistakes yeah, mistakes
Mistakes
I made, me back, again, again
I made, me back, again, again
’Cause I don't want to make the same mistakes
Oh, oh, oh
Like when the train hit the tracks baby
And we broke down
We finally made it through our darkest storm
Darkest night, baby
And I don't want to make the same mistake yeah, mistakes yeah
Mistakes
The mistakes I made won’t hold me back again
The mistakes I made won’t hold me back again
Same mistakes yeah, yeah, yeah
