Cover art for Girls Who Play Guitars lyrics by Maxïmo Park

You've been with me a year to the day three hundred and sixty-five days watching me decay

We used to talk about girls who play guitars We used to talk about plans in tiny bars

In the gaps between words are the things that really intrigue me It's the gasps and the sighs that say more about what's inside you

We used to climb up on a high horse every time We used to talk about boys with missing spines

It's her life and her life is worth living (It's her life) it never struck her to pause for one minute (It's her life)

The path of excess just led to boredom You've lived your life with your mouth wide open

It's her life and her life is worth living (It's her life) it never struck her just to pause for one minute (It's her life)

When you lie on my bed and you label me your friend don't you know how much that hurts? You could pretend and I wouldn't know I could be who you wanted in the dark

She goes and she gets drunk She gets off, she goes and she gives in She goes and she gets drunk She gets off, she goes and she gives in

It's her life and her life is worth living (It's her life) it never struck her just to pause for one minute (It's her life)

And her life is worth living

We used to talk about girls who play guitars We used to talk about girls who play guitars We used to talk about girls who play guitars We used to talk about girls who play guitars
