Demi Lovato
Mistakes (Unreleased)
[Verse 1]
I don't understand myself
I think I need a cigarette
The sky is crying on my window pane
And I don't know where my family went

[Pre-Chorus]
Through thick and thin, I thought that friends last forever
And love never ends
When I was a kid, I thought that friends last forever
Don't know where everybody went

[Chorus]
There's a stone in my chest where my heart used to be
And I'm not tryna make no excuse
You make mistakes too, though
You make mistakes too

[Verse 2]
I don't understand the world
There, I said it, I'll say it again
But I don't trust anyone that's on this damn earth
Oh, but I love in the best way I can

[Pre-Chorus]
Through thick and thin, I thought that friends last forever
And love never ends
When I was a kid, I thought that friends last forever
Don't know where everybody went
[Chorus]
There's a stone in my chest where my heart used to be
And I'm not tryna make no excuse
You make mistakes too, though
You make mistakes too

[Bridge]
Golden plaques and panic attacks
I don't wanna cave under pressure again
There's glass on the floor and my heart's in my hand
I could be anywhere in the world but it feels like there's nowhere to go
Crowded rooms all alone
I'm in crowded rooms all alone

[Chorus Variation]
You make mistakes too, though
You make mistakes too
You make mistakes too, though
You make mistakes too

[Outro: Voicemail]
You know what? Fuck it
I thought that those friendships
And those relationships that I had
People that I called family, were gonna be there forever
I thought that they would stick it out with me through the end
No matter what ups and downs I had
But the second that I made a mistake
The second there was trouble, they jump fuckin' ship
And that, I can't forgive
Maybe one day I can forgive it, but I can't forget
The worst part about it is they made this shit about themselves
Like, it had nothing to do with them
People call it a relapse, it wasn't a relapse
I set myself— I set myself free
I just stopped living my life for other people
I know at the end of the day: I can rest my head on my pillow
Without any guilt, without any shame
Because I'm living my life for me, and not for them
I gave so fucking much to them
And then they gave me a goodbye when things got rough
I'm gonna be the best that I can be
Because I'm finally getting to do what I wanna do
And by the way, I saved my own life
