Minefield lyrics - Dan Bull

I've never been, I've never been that good at love

Try as I might, try as I might, I'll fuck it up

Let me talk to you for a minute

I try to find the right time to say the right line the right place

Eye to eye, eyes aligned with my face

It wasn't easy, taking that audacious step

How could I talk, when you took away my breath?

Feels like yesterday that you said yes to me

'Till our friends were there, then you rejected me

"I love you as a friend!" - you said condescendingly

Knowing full well you were more than a friend to me

You must see how much I respect you

No casual crush, just the lust to protect you

Sat here in tears probably doesn't affect you

I braved the storm only to get wet through

It's a rare occasion that I open my heart

To invite someone in, should've known from the start

Think it's only skin-deep? You don't know the half

I make no bones that it's blown me apart

My hopes were held up on the flimsiest scaffold

You kicked out my legs, watched the whole thing collapse

I've seen you go back to that loser who abused you

But you still think there's no way I can factor in your future

It reflects the mirror back on myself

As my image cracks, and that's bad for my health

You've loved fat twattish bastards as well

So why do I still have no chance in hell?

Whoops, I blew up another mine

But nevermind, I get up, and I'm fine

I'm not crying, something's stuck in my eye

I just want somebody I can tuck in at night

Whoops, I blew up another mine

But nevermind, I get up, and I'm fine

I'm not crying, something's stuck in my eye

Look, I don't suppose we could give us another try?

I've never been, I've never been that good at love

I'm not good at love

Try as I might, try as I might, I'll fuck it up

I fucked it up again

I've never been, I've never been that good at love

I'm not good at love

Try as I might, try as I might, I'll fuck it up

I fucked it up again

Whoops, I blew up another mine

But nevermind, I get up, and I'm fine

I'm not crying, something's stuck in my eye

Look, I don't suppose we could give us another try?

Whoops, I blew up another mine

But nevermind, I get up, and I'm fine

I'm not crying, something's stuck in my eye

It's tough to adjust, so I'll just say goodbye

I've never been, I've never been that good at love, love, love, love

Try as I might, try as I might, I'll fuck it up, I'll fuck it up
