El intento

I sailed the seas of the love of my life
Lost my way at the helm waiting for you
You couldn't talk about what was hurting you
And look how much I loved you, I kissed the ground you walked on

And I couldn't see the spark in me
I was the one who had to decide
The fear I had and the pain you caused me
Made me leave this place

For not telling me what hurt you so much
We both know neither of us was a saint
For lying to yourself all the time
You only sketched your worst portrait
For never being able to arrive on time
And not knowing how to say sorry in the moment
You were the attempt of the attempt
And it shows when I lie

You talked all the time about the future
And your past crashed you against a wall
I let it slide that you forgot something impossible
You can't love when you're invisible

And I couldn't see the spark in you
I was the one who had to decide
The fear you had and the pain you caused me
Made me leave this place

For not telling me what hurt you so much
We both know neither of us was a saint
For lying to yourself all the time
You only sketched your worst portrait
For never being able to arrive on time
And not knowing how to say sorry in the moment
You were the attempt of the attempt
And it shows when I lie

You were the attempt of the attempt
And it shows when I lie
