lyrics
You vanished to the night as quickly as you came,
You know I barely got your name,
What was it?
Stewing with the guilt of all those things I'd said,
You know I'd rather wind up dead,
But you just...
Twist that knife.
You lie right to my face.
Make yourself at home inside the privacy,
Of my own private place.
Now here we are two liars lying in the sand,
But at least we got a plan,
What was it?
Oh that's right we're gonna take the world by force.
Booze, drugs, cigs and whores,
and then we'll...
See how good life feels,
When we got our record deals,
But then you got a taste of something else,
And made me think what we had wasn't real.
And I know how this all seems,
But the truth is it aint exactly,
What I mean,
No, the truth is... I never knew you.
And all along we were just rolling with the breeze,
Enchanted by the seas,
And then some...
Skeletons were seen,
But they don't belong to me,
Shit, everyone says some things sometimes,
They say some things that they don't really mean...
And I know how this all seems,
But the truth is it aint exactly,
What I mean,
No, the truth is... that I loved you...
Yeah I loved you, it's true,
And I don't know what to do,
I've never lost someone I love,
And all these things I feel, they feel brand new,
And I know how this all seems,
But the truth is it aint exactly,
What I mean,
Yeah the truth is...
I said the truth is...
That's right the truth is...
That I miss you.
