The Mistake

I don't want to die alone

Tell me there's another option for me

Standing like I shoulda known

I knew you'd accidentally look right inside of me

There's nothing anybody could say

There was nothing anybody could do

You made up your absent mind and now the rest of us are here to amuse you

Everybody I know makes the same mistakes

Packaged up in different boxes, masking shame

Laying on the carpet spilt

You told me you were fairly sure that you'd marry him

Embryonic, a native knife, you gotta finally bury it

There's nothing anybody could say

There was nothing anybody could do

Everybody's got their day

So number wisely if you know what's best for you, man

Everybody I know makes the same mistakes

Packaged up in different boxes, masking shame

I don't want to walk away from you

I don't want to walk away from you

I don't want to walk away from you

I don't want to walk away, but you let me

And now the wheels are falling off of the car

Beside the hundred meter grave in the yard

Everybody here feels sorry for us
