THE AVETT BROTHERS LYRICS - All My Mistakes

"All My Mistakes"



Shooting off vicious collections of words

The losers make facts by the things they have heard

And I find myself trying hard to defend them



I made decisions some right and some wrong

And I let some love go I wish wasn't gone

These things and more I wish I had not done



But I can't go back

And I don't want to

'Cause all my mistakes

They brought me to you



I have some "friends" they don't know who I am

So I write quotations around the word friends

But I have a couple that have always been there for me



And I missed some fun 'cause I worked through the dawn

Expecting your praise when I returned home

But I paid the cost 'cause I got left alone for the songs



But I can't go back

And I don't want to

'Cause all my mistakes

They brought me to you
