Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna make a mistake
I'm gonna do it on purpose
I'm gonna waste my time
'Cause I'm full as a tick
And I'm scratching at the surface
And what I find is mine
[PreChorus]
And when the day is done, and I look back
And the fact is, I had fun fumblin' around
All the advice I shunned, and ran
Where they told me not to run, but I sure had fun
[Verse 2]
So, I'm gonna fuck it up again
I'm gonna do another detour
Unpave my path
And if you wanna make sense
What you looking at me for?
I'm no good at math
And when I find my way back
The fact is, I just may stay
Or I may not
[PreChorus]
I've acquired quite a taste
For a well-made mistake
I wanna make a mistake
Why can't I make a mistake?
[Chorus]
I'm always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why?
[Verse 3]
Do I wanna do right? Of course, but
Do I really wanna feel
I'm forced to answer you? Hell, no
[PreChorus]
I've acquired quite a taste
For a well-made mistake
I wanna make a mistake
Why can't I make a mistake?
[Chorus]
I'm always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why?
