[Verse 1] I told you I was hurt Bleeding on the inside I told you I was lost In the middle of my life There's times I stayed alive for you There's times I would've died for you There's times it didn't matter at all [Chorus] Will you help me find the right way up Or let me take the wrong way down Will you straighten me out Or make me take the long way around I took the low road in I'll take the high road out I'll do whatever it takes To be the mistake you can't live without [Verse 2]
Standing in the dark I can see your shadow You're the only light That's breaking through the window There's times I stayed alive for you There's times I would've died for you There's times it didn't matter at all [Chorus] [Bridge] Well I'm not going to give it away Not going to let it go, just to wake up someday gone! Gone! The worst part is looking back And knowing that I was wrong [Chorus] [Outro] I'll do whatever it takes To be the mistake you can't live without
