My Mistakes Were Made for You - The Last Shadow Puppets

About as subtle as an earthquake, I know

My mistakes were made for you

And in the back room of a bad dream she came

And whisked me away, enthused

And it's as solid as a rock rolling down a hill

The fact is that it probably will hit something

On the hazardous terrain

And we're just following the flock

'Round and in between, before we're smashed to smithereens

Like they were

And we scramble from the blame

And it's the fame that put words in her mouth

She couldn't help but spit 'em out

Innocence and arrogance entwined

In the filthiest of minds

She was bitten on her birthday and now

A face in the crowd she's not

And I suspect that now forever the shape

She came to escape is forgot

And it's a lot to ask her not to sting

And give her less than everything

Around your crooked conscience she will wind

'Cause we're just following the flock

'Round and in between, before we're smashed to smithereens

Like they were

And we scramble from the blame

And it's the fame that put words in her mouth

She couldn't help but spit 'em out

Around your crooked conscience she will wind

And it's a lot to ask her not to sting

And give her less than everything

Innocence and arrogance entwined
