Lyrics

Mistakes (Demo)

[Verse 1: Jake]

I know you see the light upon my face

A warning from the gods to stay away

Forbidden like a fruit and I’m the snake

Just a bite, I wanna know the taste

[Pre-Chorus]

All the things I've seen beyond the frame

I'll steal them like I steal your heart

I'm not that bad, I make mistakes

[Chorus: Jake]

Sometimes, mistakes

Sometimes, mistakes

[Post-Chorus]

Mm

Mm

[Verse 2: Jake]

I swear I see 'em dancing on my grave

The fucker's gone, we'll never see his face

Forbidden for this life and I'm the snake

I'm hardly fit to bear this cross I made

[Pre-Chorus]

All the things I've seen beyond the frame

I'll fuck 'em like I fucked your heart

I'm not that bad, I make mistakes

[Chorus: Jake]

Sometimes, mistakes

Sometimes, mistakes
