She’s the Mistake Songtext
von Firewater

Coming down from on high
Crippled wings
X′s for eyes
And the clouds are screaming
Headlines across a tabloid sky

This isn't me
It′s just a joke
All this breathing makes me choke
And I hang like a puppet
Skeleton on twisted wires


She's the mistake
I've been dying to make
Since I can remember
Golden arrow
Straight to the marrow
Older than flame
She is the drug
I′ve been dying to take
Forever and ever
I′m hooked and I'm helpless
Tangled and hopeless
Floating away

The music stops
And there she stands
With a promise in her hands
She′s a surveillance camera super star
Without a prayer

And every passing light
That penetrates my shuttered mind
Illuminates the grim parade
That swirls around me


She's the mistake
I′ve been dying to make
Since I can remember
Golden arrow
Straight to the marrow
Older than flame
She is the drug
I've been dying to take
Forever and ever
I′m hooked and I'm helpless
Tangled and hopeless
Floating away

She's the mistake
I′ve been dying to make
Since I can remember
Golden arrow
Straight to the marrow
Older than flame
