She's The Mistake Lyrics - Firewater

Coming down from on high 

crippled wings 

x's for eyes 

and the clouds are screaminG headlines across a tabloid sky 

this isn't me 

it's just a joke 

all this breathing makes me choke 

and i hang like a puppet skeleton on twisted wires 

(chrous) 

she's the mistake 

i've been dying to make 

since i can remember 

golden arrow 

straight to the MARROW 

OLDER THAN FLAME 

she is the drug 

i've been dying to take 

forever and ever 

i'm hooked and helpless 

tangled and hopeless 

floating away 

the music stops and there she stands 

with a promise in her hands 

she's a surveillance camera super star 

without a prayer 

and every passing LIGHT that penetrates my shutterED mind 

illuminates the grim parade 

that swirls around me
