Lyrics
Big Mistake
Verse 1
Put my suitcase in the car
I am saddled with despair
I ‘m a shadow of myself
I’m confused and unaware
Turn the corner towards the lights
My insanity ignites
I am broken down and scared
All my feelings are supressed
I start laughing at myself
At the things I might regret
And I am riddled with concerns
That are bludgeoned in my head
And I take another route
To escape the simple truth
I am trembling with fear
But now that I am here
Chorus
there’s nowhere I’d rather be
there’s nowhere I’d rather be
there’s nowhere I’d rather be
Verse 2
I head out around the bend
as the voices in my head
make me shudder with contempt
there’s no release from it
all the senseless waste of time
all the lies and idle whines
the madness takes it’s toll
as the storyline unfolds
And I struggle to contain
The self-doubt with self-restrain
I am strangled by the past
Left with nothing left to hold
And I take another route
To escape the simple truth
I am trembling with fear
But now that I am here
Chorus
there’s nowhere I’d rather be
there’s nowhere I’d rather be
there’s nowhere I’d rather be
