A Simple Mistake lyrics

Think for yourself you know what you need in this life

See for yourself and feel your soul come alive tonight

Here in the moment we share, trembling between the worlds we stare

Out at starlight enshrined, veiled like diamonds in..

...time could be the answer, take a chance or lose it all

It's a simple mistake to make to create love and to fall

So rise and be your master you don't need to be a slave

Of memory ensnared in a web, in a cage

I have found my way to fly free from the constraints of time

I have soared through the sky seen life far below in mind

Breathed in truth, love, serene, sailed on OCEANS OF BELIEF

Searched and found life inside, we're not just a moment in time...

...Could be the answer, take a chance or lose it all

It's a simple mistake to make to create love and to fall

So rise and be your master you don't need to be a slave

Of memory ensnared in a web, in a cage

Despair is for people who know, beyond any doubt, what the future is going to bring.

Nobody is in that position.

So despair is not only a kind of sin, theologically, but also a simple mistake, because nobody actually knows.

In that sense there always is hope.
