The song "Mistakes" by Joy Again expresses a sense of uncertainty and aimlessness. The lyrics suggest that the protagonist can't remember all of their mistakes and is willing to stay forever to figure things out. However, thinking of the past only makes them sick of themselves and they feel that their current state of existence is just "laying in the meat" with nothing to gain. They acknowledge that they don't know responsibility and may be doomed to loving their dreams without achieving them. Despite this, they are floating on a stormy sea, trying to find something nice to eat, which could represent a search for comfort or fulfillment. The song may be an expression of the confusion and disillusionment of youth, as the protagonist feels lost and directionless in their life.
