Lyrics
I always wake up in the deep end
Why do I do this every weekend?
I guess I should’ve kept up my defense, alright
We always say that we should be friends then cross the line

You say eh eh eh eh eh eh eh eh let’s play it safe
I say eh eh eh eh eh eh eh eh yeah that’s okay
Next day eh eh eh eh eh eh eh back at my place
I say I’ll give you space
No way eh eh eh eh

All I do is run back to you
Why we keep making the same mistakes?
Cross my heart and come back to you
Why we keep making the same mistakes?
Ooh oooh oooh oooh
Ooh oooh oooh oooh
Same mistakes
Ooh oooh oooh oooh
Ooh oooh oooh

Our friends say that it’s a problem
Guess that’s the reason that we lost them
We swear that we don’t do this often, alright
Next day we mixing gin and toxic without the lights

You say eh eh eh eh eh eh eh eh let’s play it safe
I say eh eh eh eh eh eh eh eh yeah that’s okay
Next day eh eh eh eh eh eh eh back at my place
I say I’ll give you space
No way eh eh eh eh

All I do is run back to you
Why we keep making the same mistakes?
Cross my heart and come back to you
Why we keep making the same mistakes?
Ooh oooh oooh oooh
Same mistakes
Ooh oooh oooh oooh
Same mistakes

Memories together
You stayed on my mind
Every time we drifted away
Melodies forever
Playing on rewind
Call me if you wanna make the same mistakes
Ooh oooh oooh oooh
Ooh oooh oooh oooh
Same mistakes
Ooh oooh oooh oooh
Ooh oooh oooh oooh
Same mistakes

He can rap, sing, dance, write lyrics, compose and arrange music, shoot MVs for his songs, and participates in the entire production process, including script creation, scene creation, color matching, style design, lens design and shooting, and he can play piano, guitar, multiple musical instruments, good at cooking, and more importantly, he is humble, polite, and approachable, has a bright smile, has a positive personality, he is handsome and beautiful, has no scandals, and has a good reputation. Such an artist is really rare, he really deserves to be discovered and liked by everyone.😊
