“Mistakes Like This,” the second song on Prelow’s Why Does Everything Happen So Much EP, deals with lustful thoughts, and if it’s morally okay to want to pursue them.

[Verse 1]
You never act aloud the way you appear
My every breath awakes alarms in your ears
I'm not confused, it's just you're making me think
Of all our conversations missing their link
I wanna know all the dreams that you keep beneath
I want the words that you whisper when I'm asleep
Wanna give back the things that I plan to take
And I hope you won't care
But all your makeup's running
And I'm walking you home
[Chorus]
And my dick takes over
And I'm thinking 'bout your lips
But we're too damn sober
For mistakes like this
And my dick takes over
And I'm thinking 'bout your lips
But we're too damn sober
For mistakes like this
[Verse 2]
I see you more at night then you do the day
I'm more concerned for what you'll leave if you stay
I'm not confused, it's just I don't wanna talk
It seems the key was not to peek through the locks
So I wanna hear all the screams that you keep beneath
I want the words that you whisper when I'm asleep
Wanna give back the things that I never take
And I know you don't care
But all those pretty people are still going home
[Chorus]
And my dick takes over
And I'm thinking 'bout your lips
But we're too damn sober
For mistakes like this
And my dick takes over
And I'm thinking 'bout your lips
But we're too damn sober
For mistakes like this
[Outro]
For mistakes like this
For mistakes like this
Like this, like this, like this
