Your Biggest Mistake
Test Icicles Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Searching for a stroke of luck
But what the fuck
Even happened here?
And now I've got
To see this through
Time was lost
For something new
So say goodnight
If that's what you wanna do
Six months later
Up and go
Gotta go make gator
(I have ot keep reminding myself I'm not in a movie)
In my head - nothing stays
Regret fills - me everyday
But if no one's listening
THen I'll be OK
Now I'm losing time
Someone press rewind
I guess I really messed up this time
Your biggest mistake
Where have I gone for so long?
Lost control of fate
Now there's no escape
Lost control of fate
My biggest mistake
No escape
Your biggest mistake
