Panic! At The Disco - Trade Mistakes Lyrics
Placing a smile at the perfect event,
Gracing your skin with the side of my hand.
If I ever leave I could learn to miss you
But "Sentimental Boy" is my nom de plume
I may never sleep tonight,
As long as you're still burning bright.
If I could trade mistakes for sheep,
Count me away before you sleep.
I'll stay awake 'til I trade my mistakes
Or they fade away
I feel marooned in this body
Deserted, my organs can go on without me.
You can't sleep in this box with me.
Let me save you, hold this rope
I may never sleep tonight,
As long as you're still burning bright.
If I could trade mistakes for sheep,
Count me away before you sleep.
I'll stay awake 'til I trade my mistakes
Or they fade away
So, let me save you
Hold this rope and I'll pull you in
'Cause I am an anchor
Save her or feel it sinking in
Let me save you, hold this rope
(this is only the greatest story ever told)
I am an anchor, sinking her
(with lightning in my head to be brought to the world)
I may never sleep tonight,
As long as you're still burning bright.
If I could trade mistakes for sheep,
Count me away before you sleep.
I'll stay awake 'til I trade my mistakes
Or they fade away

Panic! At The Disco Trade Mistakes Comments
so underrated
I'm not up for trade, man :(
2:33 Brendon starts saying something ‘under’ the singing and I just wish we could hear it more clearly because it sounds like an apologize
I miss this era so much! 🖤🤎🤍
i used to listen to this shit on repeat everyday in seventh grade omg
My favorite album 100%
This song gives me goosebumps. Really. It's truly beautiful.
I love all of Brendon Urie and his other band members songs. ALL OF THEM
If I learnt one thing with my fews years listening P!ATD it is: never ignore a song you never listened before when it shows up in your recommendations
This album is so overlooked, I think! The lyrics are the best he’s done in my opinion. This song is so beautiful. I might cover this one on my channel, but I don’t even know if people would know it 😄
PATD 💓
This song and Ready To Go are underappreciated songs.
This and The Calendar are so good
Y’all emo
Butch Walker is a walking Masterpiece! 💓💓💓
that last "i may never sleep tonight" is honestly amazing
i think human trafficking is illegal though
this is absolutely beautiful what an underrated song
This is my crying song 😂
ANYONE ELSE HEAR THE “This is the greatest story that I’ve ever told”
People now : Pray for the wicked
Me: Flashbacks to Brallon
It's weird that when I Google the lyrics it says wrong but in the album's booklet thing it says rope. Even on Pandora it says wrong, and I'm here like "well damn which one is it then!?"
The moment you realize sometimes the best songs are the last ones you listen to 😪
A shame isn’t better known. The beginning and the chorus chills me out!!
why was i expecting a "this is garnet" after the intro
A little late to the party but just added this song to one of my all time favorites of panic at the disco songs ❤️
Underrated!!!!
Mad As Rabbits: Come Save Me
Trade Mistakes: let me save you
Two door cinema club is better
My friend once told me, "Artemis Fowl the second is all panic, no disco." and I felt that.
I swear I never heard those sweet background vocals till now it’s like
AaAaAaA
fLy ThEsE wInGs
So pretty ∩(︶▽︶)∩
panic peaked w this album . it went all downhill after this lets be real
is that goat in the back Dallon?
God Brendon's tux is so black, like Vantablack level.
1:31 made my ears orgasm
Literally any Vices' music: exists
P!ATD old fans: THAT SONG IS ABOUT RYAN
Ya'll ever just *insert violin intro on a panic! song*
Bro around June I heard my stepmom listening to this in the car and that shit hooked me.
I love songs that tell a story. And this does exactly that.
I've found the best place to keep all our old mistakes
How does this have less than a million views
"I may never sleep tonight" literally me right now at 12 AM just rocking out to p!atd. Thanks, for creating this masterpiece.
Who else subconsciously mouths the words to all the songs....
No just me? Okay then.
I don’t know how I feel about Brendon wanting to trade me for sheep but okay :P
the 109 dislikes are parents of the kids addicted to panic! lmaoo
This must be a fucking coincidence..... This song popped in my head... Then I scrolled down to see trade mistakes...... YouTube knows that I'll give in to any song in my fucking head......
Happens to me all the time
the bridge part at the end where the soft little vocals are says " this is only the greatest story ever told, with lightning in my head to be brought to the world" I think though, if I'm wrong correct me. if you cant hear it, listen closely at 2:32 he starts singing and its incredible
Aly Pem wow
"Let me save you
Hold this rope"
1. You could cling to the rope with your hands and let them pull you back from the edge
2. You could tie the rope as a noose and put it around your neck and jump off the edge
To be honest, I don't know which option scares me more.
To take the first option, you continue to be beaten by the world. You continue to be stressed. Every pain you know continues.
To take the second option, you no longer have pain. You're not stressed or beaten by the world. But everyone you leave behind is broken. Everyone you leave behind learns a new pain.
*THAT TAMBOURINE THOUGH*
I’m soft 🥺
🥀 _count me away before you sleep_
DAMMIT I LOVE THIS SONG
AND THIS ALBUM
FIEHTHDOGJELG
Love the song. Interesting coincidence with mcr’s the light behind your eye/burn bright, btw. Maybe love is similar.
if i ever leave i could learn to miss you, but “sentimental boy” is my nom de plume
This song literally takes me back to such an innocent and happy time. His songs just give me such a high 😍
Am I the only one who cries to this song?
jenafur molina definitely not the only one
I was up at 2 in the morning crying (T_T)
This song is a gem 😭😍
Special shoutout to fans who put the lyrics in the comments section ❤
1:18 gives me pretty odd vibes and that entire second part and the bridge is beautiful
has this been on the radio? I feel like it has.
No considering that this album was made 3 years ago and didnt win any awards
@Mantha Marie yeah. but i was just wondering. i was thinking like years ago tho. not recent
My favorite v and v songs (in no particular order)
1. Trade mistakes
2. Sarah smiles
3. Memories
4. Kalidascope eyes
5. Let's kill tonight
6. Ballad of mona lisa
7. Bittersweet
8. Ready to go
9. Stall me
10. Hurricane
11. Turn off the lights
12. Nearly witches
13. Always
14. Calendar

I love how rabid the P!ATD community is when it comes to old songs
*I'll still wait till I trade my mistakes* is just great to me
This song came up on my youtube playlist at like 3am and listening to it was a damn magical experience this song is so pretty oh my god
this is so damn underrated
Okay, I love this song but I just sometimes wanna know what this means...
Me at 8PM: I’m gonna go to sleep early tonight, just one more song
Me at 4AM: IIII MAAAAYYYY NEVERRRR SLEEP TONIIIGHT
There's no "may" about it, you need to sleep so you can continue to listen to more music buddy
After Pretty Odd when Ryan and Jon left, I stopped listening and it was never the same. But now I’m giving their newer music a chance and this album is so good! I love so much how they even went back to that vaudeville burlesque feel with this album. This is STILL Panic!
Me: *listens to song*
Also me: *goes to Google...*
How to trade myself for sheep
noticed how they said "fade away" in trade mistakes and memories.
I’m willing to trade myself
ITS SO BEAUTIFUL BUT ITS LIKE NORTHERN DOWNPOUR 2
Beautiful sad song.
2:23 "this is only the greatest story ever told" ugh that gives me goosebumps ❤❤❤
Someone slap me when I say TWTLTRTD is my favorite album
V&V is my second favorite p!atd album
This is my new favorite song. Goddamn this song hurts
I love this song but it also makes me sad and idk why
Here after the BBMAs
Can’t trade myself:(
(Sees title)
how do I trade myself
Can anyone make out what's being said in the background at 2:31? I just noticed it and I want to know what it is.
v&v really be like: *missing ryan ross noises*
hahahahaha im gonna make my family fall in love with panic at the disco like me by playing vices and virtues everyday until they learn to love it
My sister three years ago:
this makes me miss the boyfriend ive never had
Brings warmth to my heart :)💕
Happy birthday from 2019
My socks have avocados on them.
@no u okay

Count me away before you sleep
I'll still wait till I trade my mistakes,

You can't sleep in this box with me

If I could trade mistakes for sheep,
Count me away before you sleep
I'll still wait till I trade my mistakes,

Don't let me tell you of this wrong,
Then I'll pull you in
'Cause I am an anchor, save her oar
Feel it sinking in

Alguien que hable Español por aquí???
I know that this has been said multiple times but the album really should be called Ryan come back....
The line "if i could trade mistakes for sleep count me away before you sleep" makes me think brendon thinks/thought hes a mistake. I hope he feels better about himself now
I had a dream i was apart of panic. We were playing this at some sort of festival. My dreams have had things happen that eventually happen irl. I swear to god this better be one of those moments . Oh and there was some dude that beebo was married to???
Probably Ryan 😂
Panic! is VERY popular at my HS, sadly hardly any of them know about the older albums so imma blast this during lunch cuz pray for the wicked is good but the older is stuff is just better in my opinion. so yah imm blast this.
Yes!! You teach them the good stuff!!!
why is no one here anymore.. this song deserves more love
No one:
*tumbleweed rolls by*
No one:
*the goddamn door flys open*
Brendon: YoU cAnT sLeEp In tHiS bOx WiTh Me!
the important thing is that he closed the door after that
Who here in 2019 I am listening to the whole God Damn Album at Midnight that is true dedication
Idk understand how people dont care about this album or at least appreciate it cause its one of my favs its soooo good someone help ♡♡♡♡!!!!
Vices & Virtues is the best album made by any band ever and I will fight you on that.
