lyrics

You must be the best mistake
Repeating for a million years
You wanted an apology
I’m sorry that you fell asleep

But you must be the best mistake
And I could never want escape
To stand in everybody’s way
For you

You write your stories about me
They end in failed tests and seroquel prescriptions
You punch my face ‘til your hands bleed and then you seek to
Cry in my arms for sympathy

You must be the best mistake
Repeating for a million years
You wanted an apology
I’m sorry that you fell asleep

But you must be the best mistake
And I could never want escape
To stand in everybody’s way
For you

You tell your friends my worstest sins
Then tell me I’m your bestest friend when they are absent
If I had known what I know now ‘bout your affections
I wouldn’t ask for anything

You must be the best mistake
Repeating for a million years
You wanted an apology
I’m sorry that you fell asleep

But you must be the best mistake
And I could never want escape
To stand in everybody’s way
For you

At times I think you’re still fifteen
And we’re preparing to take on the world around us
But I was crushed near victory
And I’m the only one defeated in our struggle

You must be the best mistake
Repeating for a million years
You wanted an apology
I’m sorry that you fell asleep

But you must be the best mistake
And I could never want escape
To stand in everybody’s way
For you

I named our babies long ago
Was thinking Bernadette and Jophiel or ‘Jo’
Though you just laughed and said ‘whatever, what’s to eat?’
I said ‘my wasted heart and soul, bon appétit’

You must be the best mistake
Repeating for a million years
You wanted an apology
I’m sorry that you fell asleep

But you must be the best mistake
And I could never want escape
To stand in everybody’s way
For you
