Mistakes, I have my share,
I keep taking the blame,
I’m more broken than I knew,
I’m so sure I needed you,
If not you someone,
Someone’s got to be around,
I fall with no safety net,
Stumbling drunk in your circus above the crowd,
The wire just gets thinner and my heart just beats faster,
You didn’t pick me,
You gave me what I needed and I never thought twice,
It was just flirting,
But it always hurts just the same,
Where do I go when I can’t get what I gave back?
I’m cliché but it meant everything,
To me more than you,
I’m not saying it bound you to stay, but I thought you were worth it,
I’ve lost my heart, my heads spun out,
What am I doing here?
You’re not keeping me,
I’ve got flaws and I’m not crazy,
I’m just hurting and you couldn’t understand.
Just know someday when I’m gone,
I’m not even mad, I’ve missed you,
I’ve cried and I’ve broke things,
But you’re just another boy,
You couldn't understand what it is to be a man,
To take responsibility,
To understand the importance,
There’s nothing wrong with me,
But I can’t stop thinking that,
You can’t forgive and I never asked you forget a thing,
At least not me,
I’m hurt and you don’t have the heart to try and understand.
