Mistake

[Intro]

Follow the bright circle past the great wall

Beyond the mountains that burn

[Verse 1]

Packed up things from your house and put them away

I knew that I was going to go away

From these things but I knew

We lifted up the mattress off the fire escape

We left the truck door open

So you could escape through the fire, through the fire

[Chorus]

Am I making a mistake? Swimming the wrong way?

Am I?

Am I making a mistake? Should I hit the breaks?

Should I?

[Verse 2]

When you left that day you didn't hug me goodbye

And I called out your name so I could tell you "Goodbye"

When you left, goodbye

You kissed me on the forehead and said I was strange

I looked at you and nodded and said "Okay, I am strange"

"I am strange"

[Chorus]

Am I making a mistake? Swimming the wrong way?

Am I?

Am I making a mistake? Should I hit the breaks?

Should I?

You tell me that I am strange, that I need to change

Do I?

So I am making change, there's no other way in my mind

[Refrain]

Through the fire (Am I making a mistake?)

Through the fire (Am I swimming the wrong way?)

Through the fire (Am I making a mistake?)

(Am I going the wrong way?)

[Bridge]

Am I making a mistake, going the wrong way?

(I can go but I cannot change my ways)

Am I making a mistake? Should I hit the breaks?

[Refrain]

Through the fire, through the fire

Through the fire, through the fire (Am I making a mistake?)

Through the fire (Am I going the wrong way?)

Through the fire (Am I making a mistake?)

(Am I going the wrong way?)

[Outro]

Am I making a mistake? Am I making a mistake?

Am I making a mistake? Am I making a mistake?

Am I making a mistake?
