Lyrics Honest Mistake - The Dudes

Honest Mistake

It’s an honest mistake to let a young heart break
And the promise you make can be taken home, or taken away
When love is sold and bought at less than cost these days
I’ve found the perfect replacement for love
Just in case she eludes me in life
I’m alive and oh, that’s a miracle
And they say we’re born in lust, love’s just a dream to us
And my heart is a slayer of doubts, a purveyor of keeping you out
An obeyer of no one and nothing at all
There ain’t no way we’re going to stop today
That’s how we operate
The world can destroy herself, she won’t employ my help
We’re our own children and we won’t be blamed for none of it
(«Oh man, you effed up big time.»
«What?
We kind of just fell off.»
«Teresa is gonna kill you.»)
Not my fault
You make an honest mistake, they never let you forget it
Your cut of the take was a loss, she did but you didn’t regret it
Cause they say we come from dust, look what’s become of us
We’re gonna give 'em our worst if they hurt us on purpose
When loves in decline, it’s a crime but oh, we’re criminals
And there ain’t no day gonna stop the way that we operate
The world can destroy herself, she won’t employ my help
We’re our own children and we won’t be blamed for none of it
