Trade Mistakes

Placing a smile at the perfect event
Gracing your skin with the side of my hand
If I ever leave I could learn to miss you
But sentimental boy is my non de plume

Let me save you, hold this rope
I may never sleep tonight
As long as you're still burning bright
If I could trade mistakes for sheep
Count me awake before you sleep
I'll stay awake til I dream my mistakes so they fade away

I feel marooned in this body
Deserted my organs can go on without me
You can't fly these wings (fly these wings)
You can't sleep in this box with me

Let me save you, hold this rope
I may never sleep tonight
As long as you're still burning bright
If I could trade mistakes for sheep
Count me awake before you sleep
I'll stay awake till I trade my mistakes so they fade away

Don't
Let me me save you, hold this rope then I'll pull you in
Cause I am an anchor
Save her or feel it sinking in
Let me save you, hold this rope
(This is only the greatest story ever told)
I am an anchor sinking her oh oh ooh
(With lightening in my head to be brought to the world)

I may never sleep tonight
As long as you're still burning bright
If I could trade mistakes for sheep
Count me awake before you sleep
I'll stay awake til I trade my mistakes or they fade away
