Mistake
D+ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My guitar - has fewer strings by far
When I'm not watching you
I think you're watching me
I'm not watching you
Are you watching me
What kind of disease
Makes you --- Mistake
Your friends for your enemies
My hometown - has its ups and downs
My best friend - just turned on again
Make me lonelier - fast becoming slow
Make me lonelier - where did they all go
What kind of disease
Makes you --- Mistake
Your friends for your enemies
Your old friend - is on the loose again
No friend now …
Did I give up on you
Did you give up on me
Was our past untrue
Why did you give up
What kind of disease
Makes you --- Mistake
Your friends for your enemies
The song "Mistake" by D+ explores the theme of loneliness, confusion, and misunderstanding in relationships. The first two lines introduce two different forms of entertainment: the TV with plenty of channels, and the guitar with fewer strings. The discrepancy between the two suggests a deeper meaning, that one can have access to many things but still feel unfulfilled. The next few lines describe a creepy feeling of being watched in return - which means while one's attention is not on the other person, they might be focusing on them instead. It shows how people can feel disconnected even when they're in the same room or conversation.
The chorus "What kind of disease makes you mistake your friends for your enemies" is the crux of the song. It suggests that sometimes we can be our own worst enemies, and that misunderstandings can come from not understanding oneself. The second verse talks about the singer's hometown having its ups and downs, while their best friend has turned on them again. It emphasizes the melancholic feel of the song, where relationships can be fleeting and very confusing. The chorus comes in again, with the line "make me lonelier", which repeats several times, highlighting the pervasive feeling of isolation.
Finally, the bridge of the song brings closure - the singer wonders if they had to give up on their friend, or if it was the other way around. They contemplate the past and its trueness, emphasizing that the present situation is very different. The song ends with the chorus again, emphasizing how important it is to understand oneself in order not to mistake friends for enemies.
