Nearly perfect, however, in both verses, instead of it being, "the mistake(s) I've made," it is, in fact, "The Mistake I've made." It doesn't seem like a huge change, but it changes the entire outcome of the song.
Instead of it now sounding as though the narrator is speaking about rough patches that he can't change in his life, it sounds as though he's overdosed on some type of drug, and he's saying it's too late. This was a mistake, but it's a mistake that I can't change, aka I took the easy way out and gave up. He's dying.
