Mistakes We Should Have Made - Dawes

You look at me through your red glasses

While the yellow cab waits

We’ve been thinking 'bout our soulmates

Too long

Let’s take a night off

Admit they’re gone

Not everybody gets to feel this way

Not everybody gets stuck so bad

We’ve been talking 'bout who we had

Too much

Let’s cut to the bone

Let’s give it up

If we start right now, we can figure out

The mistakes we should have made

We can hypnotize all our wandering eyes

With the games we should have played

The mistakes we should have made

I wanna burn it down to rubble

I want my future delayed

I wanna make sure all my aces

Get played

A firework’s gotta' crack before it fades

It’s the one night we’re keeping off the books

The one night that we can stand accused

The one night that we have to lose

Control

Let’s settle the bill

Let’s rock n' roll

If we start right now, we can figure out

The mistakes we should have made

We can hypnotize all our wandering eyes

With the games we should have played

The mistakes we should have made

All of this nonsense, past-tense living

All this high rent, soul bent existence

All these night shift, «what if» questions

All these taboo, rearview obsessions

If we start right now, we can figure out

The mistakes we should have made

We can hypnotize all our wandering eyes

With the games we should have played

The mistakes we should have made

The mistakes we should have made
