[Verse 1]
Sometimes I wonder if I could
Would I take it back
All the beers I threw up
Would I quit
Or would I drink to that
All the hearts I've broken
Times I smoked in my parents basement at home
I wonder if I change a thing
Or would I leave it all alone
Would it make a difference
If they didn't give me stitches
I went back in time
And had a second life
To try and do it better
Could I do it right
All these whata's, woulda', coulda', shoulda' been's
Living in our hearts and running through our heads
I wonder if we all got to do it again
If we would makе the choice to be somе better men
Sometimes I wonder if these parties together
Were trading pain for some pleasure
I mean I hardly remember
And if we didn't get wasted
Then would our lives turn out better
Would we have made it way farther
Or never dealt with depression
Sometimes I wonder late at night
If we screwed up at least we tried
But I still wonder who we coulda' been
If we all went back in time
Sometimes I wonder just one question
Would you change even one second
Did our mistakes make us who we are
Or do you now regret them?
[Chorus]
I must a made the perfect mistakes
The bad days were worth it
They made me great
I'm a different person today
I might’ve screwed it up along the way
But I must have made the perfect mistakes
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I wonder if I could
Would I change the past
Get to work on time
And maybe try not to be late for class
Would I take it slow
Or would I raise a glass
And take it fast
Keep racing past the rainy days
Erase the sad
And head straight to what made me laugh
What could have we made happen
If we stopped chasing those dragons
Coulda' been president
Coulda' had mansions
Coulda' been an astronaut and found planets
All the minutes, seconds, moments we forget
We were never present
Wondered what was next
I wondered if we got to do it all again
If we would make the choice to be some better men
Sometimes I wonder about the way we were living
We really thought we were grown-ups
Back then we were still children
We didn't know that those decisions
Would slowly become addictions
But if we had a second shot
I don't know what we do different
Cause our mistakes taught us lessons
We lost our jobs got arrested
Got caught with pot in our dresses
And fought a lot for our friendships
Those years were awful and messy
Their super awkward at best its
All part of who we were
When we were young, dumb and reckless
[Chorus]
I must a made the perfect mistakes
The bad days were worth it
They made me great
I'm a different person today
I might’ve screwed it up along the way
But I must have made the perfect mistakes
[Verse 3]
All the times that we put it on the line
And we fought until we couldn't
Then we left it all behind
All the times we survived
When we probably shoulda' died
I still don't regret it
They were the best days of my life
All the times that we cried
And we put it on the line
And we fought until we couldn't
Then we left it all behind
All the times we survived
When we probably shoulda' died
I still don't regret it
They were the best days of my life
[Chorus]
I must a made the perfect mistakes
The bad days were worth it
They made me great
I'm a different person today
I might’ve screwed it up along the way
But I must have made the perfect mistakes
