Mistake Lyrics by Julia May

2021

Piano intro

[Verse 1]
Laying on my bed
Staring at the ceiling
One eye on the door
The other on my feelings

[Pre-Chorus]
They want me to come out and play
But I know if I see your face
I’ll make a mistake

[Chorus]
But be my mistake
Here’s my heart to break
Make my earth quake and tear down these walls
Don’t want to hide
Just come on inside
The doctors wrote prescriptions and you are what they prescribed
My friends think I’m insane
And I should walk away
But somehow I feel safest staring down the blade
Now your suspense will end
Take my move, you win
Thing about mistakes is you know you’re gonna make them again

[Verse 2]
Hitting every light
On the way to you
Kinda making me feel like this is something I shouldn’t do

[Pre-Chorus]
Tonight we’re tying up loose ends
Just to fall apart again
And then make amends

[Chorus]
So be my mistake
Here’s my heart to break
Make my earth quake and tear down these walls
Don’t want to hide
Just come on inside
The doctors wrote prescriptions and you are what they prescribed
My friends think I’m insane
And I should walk away
But somehow I feel safest staring down the blade
Now your suspense will end
Take my move you win
Thing about mistakes is you know you’re gonna make them again

[Bridge]
Playing with fire bound to get burned
But I’ve yet to take my turn
Playing with fire bound to get burned
But I’ve yet to take my turn
Playing with fire bound to get burned
But I’ve yet to take my turn
Playing with fire bound to get burned
But I’ve yet-

[Chorus]
So be my mistake
Here’s my heart to break
Make my earth quake and tear down these walls
Don’t want to hide
Just come on inside
The doctors wrote prescriptions and you are what they prescribed
My friends think I’m insane
And I should walk away
But somehow I feel safest staring down the blade
Now your suspense will end
Take my move you win
Thing about mistakes is you know you’re gonna make them again
