A perfect picture of embarrassment steadying my shaking hands
Wrapped around a glass again and look at me now
I am choking on my medicine, same pills by my father's bed
Now I need them too, come to think of it
I can't think of anyone that doesn't use
There's something in the water, something swimming in my drink
There is plastic in our oceans, there is plastic in my dreams
I'm a fading belle in the harshest light
Cawing at the sky as all your stars hang over me tonight
Yeah, it was an honest mistake to love you in such an ugly kind of way
Yeah it was an honest mistake to believe a single word that you'd say
I wish you'd deal your words more carefully
Can't you see that I'm down and out, I appreciate your honesty
But my whole world is fingernails clinging to your balcony
I wish your words didn't hurt but they do
I wish I wasn't quite so frightened of the truth
There's something in the water, something swimming in my drink
There is plastic in our oceans, there is plastic in my dreams
I'm a fading belle in the harshest light
Clawing at the sky as all your stars hang over me tonight
Yeah, it was an honest mistake to love you in such an ugly kind of way
Yeah, it was an honest mistake to believe a single word that you'd say
It's a crying shame with no words left to say
We've been looking for anything to lead us back
But you can't hear my side, I can't read your mind
I'm clinging on to a memory if that's all that we have
Then that's a hell of a waste as we fall from grace
All tangled up in honest mistakes
Yeah, it was an honest mistake to love you in such an ugly kind of way
Yeah, it was an honest mistake to believe a single word that you'd say
Yeah, it was an honest mistake to love you in such an ugly kind of way
