Misstag

You wake up in a bed with both shoes and clothes
Someone's lying next to you, who the hell is that?
Beer cans and glasses all over the apartment
The sun's shining in so you can see all the mess
Sneaking up and looking for your stuff
Can't figure out where you are and where you put it
Destructive
(I know)
But everything's relative
If we start everything from the beginning

Yeah, let's rewind just a few days
Your boyfriend broke up, maybe it was for the best
You hadn't been having a great time
And you needed someone who saw your true self
And now you're here but your cards are gone
You just want to run but you gotta find your phone
(I know)
And a better life
'Cause right now it's a total mess

Little Linda, 17 years old
I see you when you stumble home with your blonde hair
Mascara on your cheek and there's already a tear
In the dress you bought for 150 bucks yesterday
And far away you can hear the birds singing
It's so tragic and so beautiful at the same time
Everything sucks right now
(I know)
I know you're broken but I have the answers

Take it easy
One day you'll have a house and a dog
You'll find someone who loves you
Yeah, I promise you can trust me
'Cause I've walked in your worn-out shoes
Made every mistake you make
And I know you'll soon understand
I am who I am today
Thanks to all your mistakes

You'll run into the arms of many sweet boys
And think they have the solution to almost everything
You'll bomb hard in math but who cares
No one gets what you're carrying inside

You'll get caught and get a mark
'Cause the picture on your sister's ID was hardly a match
But take it easy
(I know)
You're young and dumb
It's just natural and

Oh
Maybe it got a little too much yesterday
That last drink was more than you could handle
Your heart's racing but I see how you feel
I know you're broken
But I have the answers
