I told you I was hurt bleeding on the inside, I told you I was lost in a middle of my life, There's times I stayed alive for you, There's times I would have died for you, There's times it didn't matter at all.
[Chorus:] Will you help me find the right way up Or let me take the wrong way down? Will you straighten me out Or make me take the long way around? I took the low road in, I'll take the high road out. I'll do whatever it takes To be the mistake you can't live without
Standing in the dark I can see your shadow, You are the only light That's breaking through the window. There's times I stayed alive for you, There's times I would have died for you, There's times it didn't matter at all.
[Chorus] Will you help me find the right way up Or let me take the wrong way down? Will you straighten me out Or make me take the long way around? I took the low road in, I'll take the high road out. I'll do whatever it takes To be the mistake you can't live without
I'm not gonna give it away, not gonna let it go, Just to wake up someday gone, The worst part is looking back at Knowing that I was wrong
[Chorus] Will you help me find the right way up Or let me take the wrong way down? Will you straighten me out Or make me take the long way around? I took the low road in, I'll take the high road out. I'll do whatever it takes To be the mistake you can't live without
