i sat by the ocean

Biffy Clyro

I sat by the ocean
And drank a potion
Baby, to erase you
Face down in the boulevard
Yet I couldn t face you
There ain t no use in crying
It doesn t change anything
So baby, what good does it do
Your friends, they all sympathize
Maybe, I don t need them to

Imagine I d be your one and only
Instead I m the lonely one
You, me and a lie
Silence is closer
We re passing ships in the night

There s nowhere to run away, said
Boy if you want love
You ll have to go and find it with someone new
Do you know who you really are?
Are you sure it s really you?
Lies are a funny thing
They slip through your fingertips
Because they never happened to you
Time wounds all the heals
As we fade out of view

Imagine I d be your one and only
Instead I m the lonely one
You me and a lie
Silence is closer
We re passing ships in the night
You me and a lie
Silence is closer
We re passing ships in the night
End to the night, left with nowhere to hide
Closer and closer
We re crashing ships in the night
