Mistake

You think I'm evil, but I'm not.
You think I'm cruel, but I'm not.
You think I'm ruthless, but I'm not.
I thought I'm courageous, but I'm not.
You think I'm lazy — yes I am,
You think I'm crazy — yes I am.
You think I'm mighty — no I'm not,
I thought I'm not craven, but I am.

It seems to me you know that I'm a liar.
I know that nothing in this world is free,
But you don't know how long I had been trying
To be the man that you want me to be.

You don't have to fear, the heaven is near;
Enough is as good as a feast.
The blade of the knife, the loser whose life
Depends on the flick of the wrist.

Forget all my names, my home is on fire,
Now I need some bread and wine.
I'm watching the flames get higher and higher,
And I found my place in the line.
Forget all mistakes, I'm waiting for you,
So come, take my hand, take my heart.
You know what it takes, I'm still loving you,
And I will till death do us part.

You know I love you, yes I do.
You know I want you, yes I do.
You know I need you, yes I do.
I knew I'll miss you — now I do.

Forget all my names, the whole world's on fire,
Now I need the stars to shine.
I'm watching the flames get higher and higher,
And I found my place in the line.
Forget all mistakes, I'm waiting for you,
So come, take my hand, take my heart.
You know what it takes, I'm still loving you,
And I will till death do us part.
