My Mistake from From Ashes by IAmFire

MY MISTAKE

Youthfully obsessive, cultivating my own premature demise and fall from grace.
I´ve become a picture-perfect model of the things I thought you wanted from me.
Every single time I chiseled myself, closer to the image of how I believed you´d love me.

Please make this quick and painless.
I´m sick of trading time for knowledge.
Been there, done that.
Where´s the satisfaction you´re all talking about?
I carved, bitterness, confusion and grief;
Into the very image I led you to believe.

If this was my mistake;
My mistake, was my mistake.
If this was my mistake,
my mistake, was my mistake
then we are all guilty.

Get up and stand up,
your sense of elevated average
does not exclude you
what you do
this is not over until you´re
ashes and ashes and ashes and
ashes and ashes and
you walk the sands.

One foot in front of the other.

If this was my mistake;
My mistake, was my mistake.
If this was my mistake,
my mistake, was my mistake
then we are all guilty.

Don´t you think we´ve dug too many holes?
Dead and buried heroes.
Strangers faces hiding in the dark.
No one wants to see.

If this was my mistake;
My mistake, was my mistake.
If this was my mistake,
my mistake, was my mistake
then we are all guilty.
