My Mistake

She was hanging round in her small town crown With the king of shit mountain, the prom king clown Trying to keep his grip clutching to her hip We locked eyes in that dive and the king got clipped It was my mistake I was asleep but now I'm wide awake, wide awake My mistake turned me around It took the time it takes I was asleep and it was my mistake I had lost my aim playing a young man's game Always loving something different till it's all the same Stumbling along stiff drinks and songs I'd gotten pretty good at getting gone It was my mistake I was asleep but now I'm wide awake, wide awake My mistake turned me around It took the time it takes I was asleep and it was my mistake Sweetness I never felt this kinda heat this Is either real or this is weakness Don't wanna listen to my head Oh Sweetness Oh listen to my head We spent 1000 nights under the neon lights Just feeding our destructive little appetites Time went by and I decided not to fight She dared me to clean up and maybe I just might Gonna swear off my abandon and clear my sights Oh my mistake Oh my mistake I was asleep but now I'm wide awake, wide awake My mistake turned me around It took the time it takes I was asleep but now I'm wide awake
