Pleasant Mistake Lyrics - Alexa Borden

Lift of the eyelids 

Bleary with sleep 

she's cold as the rainfall 

but heat to his sheets 

Quiet as a dormouse 

swift as the wind 

untangle your breath 

and your fingers from his 

Oh what pathetic displays 

hunger satisfied by a stay 

regretful, what a pleasant mistake 

now I must pay. 

Pressed into pillows 

silk as skin 

a kiss on the forehead 

now she's gone with the wind 

Damage the broken 

then use it again 

one special glance 

now she's under your grip 

Oh what pathetic displays 

hunger satisfied by a stay 

regretful, what a pleasant mistake 

now I must pay. 

Fill up your mouth with her porcelain lips 

take all you can and run with it 

take for yourself 

for your selfishness 

Oh what pathetic displays 

hunger satisfied by a stay 

regretful, what a pleasant mistake 

now I must pay
