California’s The Beautiful Mistake is one of my faves from The Militia Group label which sports greats such as The Rocket Summer (whom I’ve seen live!), Copeland, Brandtson (whom I’ve also seen live!) & Acceptance, just to name a few. Their most recent 2020 release, EP You’re Not Broken, I Am, continued the post hardcore/emo trend they became known for. They have played a few Christian fests including TomFest back in 2002. The following is my fave from them and I dare say dabbled in the math rock genre. Check out these profound lyrics
I never said I’d prove it, I only said I’d show it
I gave you my all, but you wanted more
Lost on the inside, filling up the score
I remember playing that one. It’s stuck in my head
Over and Over. I took and you bled
I never said I’d prove it, I only said I’d show it
I gave you my all, but you wanted more
Lost on the inside, filling up the score
I am impatient. Misunderstood
What ever it is, I’ve got what it cured
To your arms I run. My own life, it crumbles
No longer am I damned. No longer do I stumble
I remember playing that one. It’s stuck in my head
Over and Over. I took and you bled
