[Verse 1]
Lonely was I
Last night in your room
Collect the things
that you forget soon
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Everybody else said you're no good
[?]
[?]
Whispers that I should let you be
Arranged on the shelves
So protective of you
Forget the seed
That forgets what it grew
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Like a phantom limb that I cannot control,
I cannot repair what I don't believe
Maybe if I could let you go,
Maybe I could forget everything
[Chorus]
You were my Ocean King
Have you ever been honestly in love?
you were my Ocean King
Have you ever been honest with anyone?
[x2]
[Verse 2]
Change both my names
lose the one that I knew
Like how yours is a skin
I could not shed too soon
[Pre-Chorus 3]
You're a ghost in everything I see
You're a bitter pill that I still taste
Do you carry with you a part of me?
Do I love the part that I displaced?
[Chorus] [x5]
