Terrible Mistake
[Verse 1]
I'm beginning to question what they promised me
I'm beginning to recognize that this freedom feels like slavery
'Cause when I try to let go of what they hand to me
My hands turn into fists
These chains tighten round my wrists, oh

[Verse 2]
I heard a story about a girl
Our eyes are the same color
Her words painted a different world
That brought freedom like no other, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
Feels like I'm waking up
The fight or flight response is stirring up

[Chorus]
They've made a terrible mistake
Misjudging all your motives
We'rе not doomed
Our father's fate
God rеst his soul
You show them
They've made a terrible mistake
Misjudging all your motives
We're not doomed
Our father's fate
God rest his soul
You show them
[Verse 3]
The cosmos expand at your command
And yet somehow I'm invited in
With a song of love so beyond my soul
How could I ever drink it in, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
My trembling soul
Bows as low as I can go

[Chorus]
They've made a terrible mistake
Misjudging all your motives
We're not doomed
Our father's fate
God rest his soul
You show them
They've made a terrible mistake
Misjudging all your motives
We're not doomed
Our father's fate
God rest his soul
You show them

[Bridge]
Just take my all
Just Take me over
If I perish, I perish
Just burn me up
Consuming fire
If I survive, I survive
It must true that I have died
But here I am somehow alive
I am your living sacrifice
I don't know how I'm still alive
Just take my all
Just take me over
If I perish, I perish
Just burn me up
Consuming fire
If I survive, I survive
Can it be I've already die
I am your living sacrifice
I don't know how I'm still alive
I am your living sacrifice
Oh your living sacrifice
Oh
[Chorus]
They've made a terrible mistake
Misjudging all your motives
We're not damned
Our father's fate
God rest his soul
You show them
They've made a terrible mistake
Misjudging all your motives
We're not damned
Our father's fate
God rest his soul
You show them

[Outro]
It must true that I have died
But here I am somehow alive
I am your living sacrifice
I don't know how I'm still alive
Oh, how I'm still alive
Oh, your living sacrifice
