Acrobat Lyrics - A Certain Trigger - Maximo Park

You've got to catch an early plane 

And its no surprise I'm standing still 

Another minute more is all I need 

I'll never have enough 

This room gets so cold in the winter 

What will it take to heat this house? 

I just want to feel comfortable 

When there's only the two of us in my bed 

My foot nearly brushes your leg 

I can't draw it away 

I can't push it forward 

It lies stranded 

It belongs to someone else 

We knew each other once 

This can't be what you want 

But you didn't have to demolish me 

I don't remember losing sight of your needs 

I don't remember losing sight of your needs 

I am not an acrobat 

I cannot perform these tricks for you 

Losing all my balance 

Falling from a wire made for you 

The sky is often used as a metaphor 

I suppose its because its so big and expansive 

When a long stranded cloud sits just above the horizon 

Leaving a strip of clear blue beneath it 

It becomes the panorama 

And you turn your head 360 degrees 

And the same line follows you round 

If the land is sufficiently flat 

Really nothing can be compared to it 

I don't remember losing sight of your needs 

I don't remember losing sight of your needs 

Your needs 

I am not an acrobat 

I cannot perform these tricks for you 

Losing all my balance 

Falling from a wire made for you 

I am not an acrobat 

I can't perform these tricks for you 

Losing all my balance 

Falling from a wire made for you
