As the Sun Sips the Ocean's Venom

There’s a hole in my pocket where I hide all your faults

And I let them fall on through

Pretend that they’re far and few

My head’s always turned from the girls that you yearn

I know they’re no good for you

None are worth your pursuit

I’m breaking his heart to keep mine a la carte

I'm saving it up for you
‘Cause I can’t help but be true

There’s a void in my mind where I lose and refind

The years I’ve been loving you

You act like you never knew

I’m twisting your sternum to thieve your affection

Oh the larceny I stoop to

Yet I cannot break through

I’d wake in the dark to collect shooting stars

Wish our love burns a fiery hue

My efforts will soon subdue

I’m tangled up tight in the strings that you tied

I’m choking on my own noose

You left me a hopeless view

And I know it's not right, these feelings I fight

But I've tried all I can do

Will I ever get over you?
