Mistakes

by Taylor   May 4, 2006


People say that I'm making mistakes
But sometimes I just like to feel good
It's not like I am throwing life away
And I've been doing the best I could

Behind all these shivers and shakes
I am feeling so right on the inside
I couldn't quit now if I really wanted to
But it's not like I've never even tried

Deep down I know this is so wrong
And slowly I feel my body shut down
It's only your voice that can save me
But I go back when you're not around

I only wish that I could finally be saved
From over and over making mistakes
For once I am starting to realize
The toll that my already weak body takes

I can see that you are trying to help
You're the only one that believes in me
You've been through this once before
And you know what I feel, you can see

You reach out, but I am fading away
Last chance to save my body as it breaks
It is sneaking up on me finally I see
Feeling good was just a bunch of mistakes

*I sort of wrote this about Mimi... from Rent. I don't know if I like it much.
