My Mistake - Dave Hause

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
