Mistakes to Make - The Kite String Tangle

When you reached the top

Did I flinch

When I looked down

Did I blink

Think of all the things

I could have been

And I’m sorry

For how I acted

I thought I changed, oh

But the fact is

I’m not who I paint myself to be

When it’s my time

I’ll step back with grace

When it’s my time

You’ll have all of me

When it’s my time

There’ll be no mistakes to make

And my shots, they ricochet

'Cause I should’ve been looking straight

But I’ve been over my shoulder

'Cause you’re getting closer

When it’s my time

I’ll step back with grace

When it’s my time

You’ll have all of me

When it’s my time

There’ll be no mistakes to make

When it’s my time

I’ll step back with grace

When it’s my time

You’ll have all of me

When it’s my time

There’ll be no mistakes to make

And I’m sorry

For how I acted

I thought I changed, oh

But the fact is

I’m not who I paint myself to be

When it’s my time

I’ll step back with grace

When it’s my time

You’ll have all of me

When it’s my time

There’ll be no mistakes to make
