Mayday Parade - I'd Rather Make Mistakes Than Make Nothing at All Lyrics






All these days have turned these months into a year
And I've been spending every second wishing I could disappear
And I know one day I'll start to speak again
I just need some inspiration I can rightfully defend
And I'm close when it's hurting bad, it only gets worse
I sing for the children of the Earth

I've broken every rule that I've known
Since you told me that I've got to have passion
Honestly, you've got me all wrong
I am just a boy on my own, and looking for some promising action
Tell me what it takes to move on

When I'm gone I can't keep up with what's at home
And I'd love to make it right, but there are things I can't control
But I'm close, when it's over tell me when to let go
I'll be the last one to know

When you were at the top of my list, I promised you
That this wouldn't happen, how do I begin to explain
Crimson lips and permanent kiss, you love me
On the back of her napkin, maybe I should throw it away

Make a move, so carefully
Cut me down and let me bleed
And I'll slowly, walk away

And now you wanna talk, so fitting
I remember times, when you were holding by a thread of a chance
You'll make it out alive, God willing
All you need is time
And it's been getting awful close to our year
This is so messed up, but if you give me all your love
Then we'll show angels up above
That we can make it out alive, God willing
I remember times, when you were holding by a thread of a chance

I've broken all the rules that I've known
You told me that I've got to have passion
Honestly, you've got me all wrong
I am just a boy on my own
And looking for some promising action
Tell me what it takes to move on

Make a move, so carefully
Get me down and let me bleed
And I'll slowly walk away

    I know about Mayday Parade because of someone I really admire, love maybe. It is so special because it feels like he let me in and let me know how he feels through MP's songs. It's like a piece of him is given to me, and it's so meaningful for me. Even though it's impossible for us to be together since we're both guy (I'm gay, he's straight), but that is enough for me already. Now I'm still listening to Mayday Parade, even if we turn into total strangers again. I will still remember him through songs.

  5. B.... L....

    my friends Ana and Kayla told me to listen to terrible things. I feel in love with the song. I didn't look into them for a year just about because usually I get my heart broken when I look into an artist. I listened to sound cloud was trying out falling in reverse but it didn't work out then I heard oh well. then girls. when I heard the acoustic of three cheers for five years. I was really interested. when I heard I swear this time I mean it I was sold.

    N.... J....

    "I swear this time I mean It" is really good. My favorite is "Hold Onto Me". It was what my first love called 'our song', and it's how I got introduced to Mayday Parade.

    N.... J....

    my fav song is when you see my friends. i think of it like my ex is singing it to me, it gives me hope that way that theres a chance of fixing everything.

  18. A.... ....

    I don't remember how i found this band tbh. But i find nearly every song relatable

    A.... ....

    Annie-Rose you're 5.

  19. J.... 9....

    SO WHERE ARE ALL THE EKKO MAINS ? COME ON SHOW URSELVES

  20. K.... T....

    It's funny because I found out about Mayday Parade from an ex-friend. We had a complicated relationship. He told me about MP and I used MP to get over him, which was both heaven and torture, because each song made me think of him, but each song also let me forget about him. If for nothing else, he was good for music. I'll never forget him, especially since I see him every time I listen to this band.

    K.... T....

    youre literally in every mayday parade video ive been to

    K.... T....

    Haha I love them :)

    K.... T....

    I relate..

  25. M.... B....

  26. T.... ....

    "This is so messed up but if you give me all your love, then we'll show angels up above that we can make it out alive." 
    So good. 

  27. A.... D....

    I've only just got into Mayday Parade... I'm more into my heavy stuff, but, this song speaks to me, it sounds weird but I can relate to the lyrics quite well! Really great album overall! 

  28. t.... l....

    if people really know what the song means then u will understand what its about and the true meaning just saying :)

    t.... l....

    say what mate

  29. t.... l....

    this song plays in my head daily :)

  30. k.... d....

    None of my friends are into Mayday so they are my own little band that no one else i know likes or has even heard of, and I love that about Mayday. Perfect music and incredible lyrics. Pure beauty.

    k.... d....

    Same Pinch T-T touching lyrics

    k.... d....

    @kevin davis ikr i love so many bands that i am passionate about, and no one knows or likes them, but i think thats good for me, it makes it more special haha

    k.... d....

    none of my friends are friends, so everything is my little fandom no matter wut it is.

    k.... d....

    Same for me. I love this band so much their lyrics are just so meaningful. Amazingly beautiful band.

    k.... d....

    kevin davis I just force my friends to listen to my music

  31. O.... ....

    I wish this band could be like 10x more popular

  32. Z.... V....

    "All these day have turned these moths into a year. And I've been spending every second wishing I could disappear. And I know one day I'll start to speak again. I just need some inspiration I can rightfully defend."

    I'm using this as a poem needed for one of my projects in Pre-Ap Language Arts... Hope I have the meaning for those lyrics correct

    Z.... V....

    +XZara VieX i know this is a year late, but it doesn't matter what the lyrics mean to anyone but you. if they mean something to you, they won't mean the same to the other person. don't worry about what other people interpret the meaning as, just as long as you know it.
    random, but i don't know..maybe that helps

    Z.... V....

    +Charles Scott Jesus.... I haven't even listened to this in forever. I got a good grade on that project though, haha.

  33. Z.... M....

    this song needs more recognition 

    Z.... M....

    not just the song this band. I have hardly heard about them. honestly, they were a link on the side of the page when i was listening to Falling in Reverse, and now I am in love with Mayday Parade

    Z.... M....

    Wow, what's Falling in Reverse? I need to check that out.

  34. T.... ....

    I love your username! Fellow Killjoy :D

  35. J.... B....

    Jazzy, I am in love with you. .__.

  36. j.... ....

    flower in the window

  37. B.... ....

    what font did you use??

  38. A.... L....

    "Make a move so carefully
    Cut me down and let me bleed.
    and I'll slowly walk away"
    My favorite lyrics ever

  39. D.... V....

    i really love listening to this song!

  40. j.... ....

    hey, that's awesome. maybe i'll check you guys out(:

  41. j.... ....

    thank you so much. i really appreciate it (:

  42. l.... ....

    what's the font? :)

  43. E.... L....

    honestly i really think that without jason they sound better! but i also think that with jason he brought an amazing feature to the band and his and dereks voice was really a great combination! but i like how derek has grown alot more comfortable in his voice and this album is amazing!

  44. j.... ....

    Yeah, Jason Lancaster(: He did leave the band but they're still friends. Go Radio's really good, too. Jason's voice is amazing. And this is their newest album. It's self-titled. Mayday Parade haha(:
