Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
[Verse 2]
What should I do, what should I do?
When I'm the one who can't get through
What should I do, what should I do?
When I'm the one, hey, I'm the one to blame
[Verse 3]
I can't see past this chance
For us to reconcile these doubts
They've all gone on for far too long
Yeah, it goes on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
[Verse 4]
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
[Verse 5]
What should I do, what should I do?
When I'm the one who can't get through
What should I do, what should I do?
When I'm the one, hey, I'm the one to blame
[Verse 6]
Just not built for this role
And all the time much better spent
But it all drags on for far too long
And it drags on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
[Verse 7]
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
[Verse 8]
What should I do, what should I do?
When I'm the one who can't get through
What should I do, what should I do?
When I'm the one, hey, I'm the one to blame
[Verse 9]
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
[Verse 10]
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
I wish I was someone better
[Verse 11]
Made a mistake, made a mistake
Made a mistake, made a mistake
Made a mistake, made a mistake
Made a mistake, made a mistake
Made a mistake, made a mistake
Made a mistake, made a mistake
Made a mistake, made a mistake
Made a mistake, made a mistake
