Mayday Parade – I'd Rather Make Mistakes Than Nothing At All

All these days have turned these months into a year
And I've been spending every second wishing I could disappear
And I know one day I'll start to speak again
I just need some inspiration I can rightfully defend

But I'm close
When it's hurting bad it only gets worse
I sing for the children of the Earth

I've broken every rule that I've known
Since you told me that I've gotta have passion
Honestly, you've got me all wrong
I am just a boy on my own and looking for some promising action
Tell me what it takes to move on

When I'm gone I can't keep up with what's at home
And I'd love to make it right but there are things I can't control
But I'm close
When it's over tell me when to let go
I'll be the last one to know

When you were at the top of my list
I promised you that this wouldn't happen
How do I begin to explain?
Crimson lipstick permanent kiss
You love me on the back of a napkin
Maybe I should throw it away

Make a move so carefully
Cut me down and let me bleed
And I'll slowly walk away

Now you wanna talk, so fitting
I remember times when you were holding by a thread of a chance
You'll make it out alive, God willing
All you need is time and it's been getting awful close to a year

This is so messed up
But if you give me all your love
Then we'll show angels up above that we can
Make it out alive, God willing
I remember times when you were holding by a thread of a chance

I've broken all the rules that I've known
You told me that I've gotta have passion
Honestly, you've got me all wrong
I am just a boy on my own and looking for some promising action
Tell me what it takes to move on

Make a move so carefully
Cut me down and let me bleed
And I'll slowly walk away.
