lyrics

Mistake

words & music by Christopher Dallman

On a day like today
When I do everything I always say I won’t
Just when things were riding fine
I lose sight of the line
Between do and don’t

If I’m gonna make a mistake
It’s gonna be big
Why sip it if I can drink it down
Why hold it if I can pass it around
And around
And around

On a day like today
When I can find the faith or will to pray
I can match the sky grey for grey
If you can’t get me high
Best get out of my way

If I’m gonna make a mistake
It’s gonna be big
Why sip it if I can drink it down
Why hold it if I can pass it around
And around
And around

I can’t trust myself anymore
I can’t trust the light
I left on in the bathroom
To help me find my way at night
So I use my hand
I grope at the wall
If I can’t trust myself
Then I can’t trust anyone at all

On a day life today
When I do everything I always say I won’t
It seems I do this every time
I disregard the line between do and don’t


If I’m gonna make a mistake
It’s gonna be big
Why sip it if I can drink it down
Why hold it if I can pass it around
And around
And around
