Trial And Error - Maximo Park

Living with you is trial and error,
Admiring the view I sit astonished,
Trying to avoid each other,
Is this were it ends a final conflict,
A room with a view beneath the covers,
Learning to avoid each other,
You left me sore frayed around the edges,
Becoming a feat of sheer duration,
A simple lunge became our failure

I used to stay here all the time,
Watching your feelings pass me by

Living apart is tried and tested,
Nothing today of being swept in,
Stretching out my palms to save you,
Travelling alone has left you bitter,
Trying not to spoil your shoes,
Vanity revealed im smothered

I used to stay here all the time,
Watching your feelings pass me by,
I hardly ever lose control,
And I never meant to make you cry

There will never be a transformation,
There are always flaws in my navigation,
Plotted out a course devoid of reason,
Living on your own you hide your feelings

I used to stay here all the time,
Watching your feelings pass me by,
I hardly ever lose control,
And I never meant to make you cry
