A mistake

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
And when the day is done, and I look back
And the fact is I had fun, fumbling around
All the advice I shunned, and I ran
Where they told me not to run, but I sure had fun, 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
I´ve acquired quite a taste for
A well-made mistake I wanna make a mistake
Why can´t I make a mistake?
I´m always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why
Do I wanna do right, of course but
Do I really wanna feel I´m forced to
Answer you, hell no
I´ve acquired quite a taste for
A well-made mistake, I wanna make a mistake
Why can´t I make a mistake
I´m always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why
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
And when the day is done, and I look back
And the fact is I had fun, fumbling around
All the advice I shunned, and I ran
Where they told me not to run, but I sure had fun, 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
I´ve acquired quite a taste for
A well-made mistake I wanna make a mistake
Why can´t I make a mistake?
I´m always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why
Do I wanna do right, of course but
Do I really wanna feel I´m forced to
Answer you, hell no
I´ve acquired quite a taste for
A well-made mistake, I wanna make a mistake
Why can´t I make a mistake
I´m always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why
