The Perfect Mistake – A Step In The Right Direction lyrics

Make no mistake
Our time has long been over
Why we try to fake it
Is what I'll never understand, yeah

There shouldn't be things
That I see better off, for you
I'm better yet I think
It's time to act your age

Stop hiding under things
That were, that aren't anymore

[Chorus]
We know we've got a problem
When words mean no more than that
We lie through our teeth
To fill the quotas that our hearts demand

So let's take a step in the right direction
And see the road beneath our feet
We've all have had our heartaches
So quit acting like you never hurt before

'Cause after all
Ain't this how love's supposed to be
When all is said and done
We cut our losses to their smallest
Lock this door and keep the key protected
So no one knows this path existed

[Chorus]
Well we've got a problem
When words mean no more than that
We lie through our teeth
To fill the quotas that our hearts demand

Now our "I love yous"
Do us no good at all
Should've packed your bags
And secrets shared
I want you walking out that door

I'm not asking as your accident
I'm asking as your only friend
How'd this get so far out of control?
[[we've got a problem]]

[Chorus]
We know we've got a problem
When words mean no more than that
We lie through our teeth
To fill the quotas that our hearts demand
[[we've got a problem]]

Now our "I love yous"
Do us no good at all
Should've packed your bags
And secrets shared
I want you walking out that door
[[we've got a problem]]
