ive made worse mistakes Lyrics
Of course, I wish that I could stay
But we both know I've gotta go (Go, go, go)
I've got some things I've gotta handle
And some people that I've gotta console (Console, console)
You smile ear-to-ear, it kinda looks a bit weird, people don't mind it
You started going to therapy
Fucking finally
[Chorus]
Of course, you'll do some things you wish you never did
Like dating that girl, she was such a bitch
And I hate to sound pretentious at a time like this
But if you never died, then you've never lived
[Verse 2]
You meet a girl, you meet a guy
You meet somebody, nеver mind it (Yeah, yeah, yеah)
Ash, I hope you save yourself 'cause everybody's fucking dying (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And of course, I know that things are strange
I wish that I could show you that it's okay (Okay, okay)
'Cause looking at it now, you wouldn't change a damn thing
[Chorus]
Of course, you'll do some things you wish you never did
Like piss some people off just for the hell of it
And I hate to sound pretentious at a time like this
But if you never died, then you've never lived
You'll get a couple tattoos
And the people you trust will take advantage of you
But it's okay
But isn't it always?
[Chorus]
Because of course, you'll do some things you wish you never did
And some people get mad but you learn from it
And I hate to sound pretentious at a time like this
But if you never died, then you've, then you've never lived
[Outro]
Fuck, I wish that you could see me now
Wish you could see me now
Wish that you could see me now
Fuck, I wish that you could see me now
Wish you could see me now
Wish that you could see me now

With fast-paced production on every hook, glaive conveys what he’s learned throughout his time while aggressively capturing focus.
