Lyrics
Sorry My Mistake
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.
The frozen tear melted here
Between the man made lake and
The ice that wouldn't break
A drowning note fury wrote
That caused the earth to quake
Confindence to shake
Sorry my mistake
The sun rose high
And went screaming by and the
Moon surveyed the scene
Silent and serene
While cops set cones
Around broken bones
Saying for heaven's sake
What an obvious mistake
Up came back down while
I was sewing up my stitch and
Dreaming in the ditch soooo
Sick of my sweet self and
Everything i made
A friendly flare
Flash midair there
Was a twinkle in your eye
A smoke signing in the sky
I feel deep
In love asleep
Looking wide awake
Like a wave that wouldn't break
Sorry my mistake
