Maximo Park - Pride Before A Fall Lyrics

If I gave you a name, would you live up to it?
If I gave you a game, would you play up for me?
If I play with your heart, would you respect me?
If I came on too shy, would you reject me?

What did I do to you?
Why does it hurt when I hear your name?
What did I do to you?
Why does it hurt when I hear your name?

Pride before a fall
None of us are perfect figures
Pride before a fall
You made me reconsider

If I apportion the blame, could you hold under it?
And if I ran out of strength could you forgive me?
I looked at you for too long the other day
It was then that I knew that you weren’t the one
You weren’t the one.

What did I do to you?
Why does it hurt when I hear your name?
What did I do to you?
Why does it hurt when I hear your name?

Pride before a fall
None of us have got a perfect figure
Pride before a fall
You forced me to reconsider

I looked at you today
I looked at you another way

Pride before a fall
None of us are perfect figures
Pride before a fall
You forced me to reconsider
