Mistakes to Make

When you reached the top
Did I flinch
When I looked down
Did I blink
Think of all the things
I could have been
And I’m sorry
For how I acted
I thought I changed, oh
But the fact is
I’m not who I paint myself to be
When it’s my time
I’ll step back with grace
When it’s my time
You’ll have all of me
When it’s my time
There’ll be no mistakes to make
And my shots, they ricochet
'Cause I should’ve been looking straight
But I’ve been over my shoulder
'Cause you’re getting closer
When it’s my time
I’ll step back with grace
When it’s my time
You’ll have all of me
When it’s my time
There’ll be no mistakes to make
When it’s my time
I’ll step back with grace
When it’s my time
You’ll have all of me
When it’s my time
There’ll be no mistakes to make
And I’m sorry
For how I acted
I thought I changed, oh
But the fact is
I’m not who I paint myself to be
When it’s my time
I’ll step back with grace
When it’s my time
You’ll have all of me
When it’s my time
There’ll be no mistakes to make
