You can`t by stand all the people
Stand them on their own
They will fall to pieces
So we watch them grow
Into strange and pretty faces
I don`t know
Clutching to my lipstick traces
Watch them go

Make mistake number three [Repeat: x3]

It`s strange how much it changes
How they want to know
How cynical are people
That`s where children go

Dragged into a conversation
They can`t hold
It`s so bad
But it prepares them for the mold

Make mistake number three
(repeat three times)

Why is my love like an ocean run dry?
Why is my love
Such a struggle with life?

You can"t by stand all the people
Stand them on their own
They will fall to pieces
So we watch them grow

Make mistake number three [Repeat: x3]
