Cry Me An Ocean (Ft. Ladyface & Moongaze)

from SickSongs by Ngajuana

lyrics

I need to get as far possible away from you,
I’m talking county, continent, at least a lake or two,
Because you played games with my heart, my devotion,
I’m buying me a boat, could you cry me an ocean?
Ocean, Ocean, cry me an ocean,
A river isn’t wide enough, cry me an ocean,
Ocean, Ocean, cry me an ocean,
A river isn’t wide enough, cry me an ocean.

I think I coulda loved you in another life,
But we’re so alike; I can’t stand you, not even for another night,
Opposites attract – and this is why we always fight,
This is why we always scrapped, fucking right I fucked you right,
You want it remembered? Well you remember it then,
Cause I wanna dismember it, think it never again,
Need to do what I gotta do, lose any thought of you,
Erase all your beautiful with booze by the bottleful,
You wish I’d coddle you, not gonna happen,
Cause I usually could throttle you, but truthfully can’t follow through,
Swallow after swallow til your memory fades,
But still your memory stays, inside me everyday,
I can’t escape it, it’s like I like it more the more I hate it,
All my feelings for you alien as those who board on spaceships,
I’d die to call you Fake bitch, all up in your face, bitch,
So - close - to - your - tears – falling - I can taste it.

I need to get as far possible away from you,
I’m talking county, continent, at least a lake or two,
Because you played games with my heart, my devotion,
I’m buying me a boat, could you cry me an ocean?
Ocean, Ocean, cry me an ocean,
A river isn’t wide enough, cry me an ocean,
Ocean, Ocean, cry me an ocean,
A river isn’t wide enough, cry me an ocean.

Everything has changed; it can never be the same,
Ship has sailed, train hit the rails and you have missed your plane,
Sick of the game, oh so simple and plain,
You played apple of my eye I played second plantain, pain,
I can feel it; I’ll define it as the years pass,
And you’ll forget til you’re reminded when your tears splash,
I see em pooled up, bout to stream at last,
Trying to cry a river, but a river isn’t that vast,
So you tried to make me sea, but that was half-assed,
Cry me an ocean and I’ll sail around at half mast,
Mourning what we coulda been, what we’ll never be,
Blame free, he blames her and her blames he, me,
And around and around we go, and around and around we go,
Where we stop? I’m confounded, I just don’t know,
You’re on the ground screaming just don’t go, baby just don’t go.

I need to get as far possible away from you,
I’m talking county, continent, at least a lake or two,
Because you played games with my heart, my devotion,
I’m buying me a boat, could you cry me an ocean?
Ocean, Ocean, cry me an ocean,
A river isn’t wide enough, cry me an ocean,
Ocean, Ocean, cry me an ocean,
A river isn’t wide enough, cry me an ocean.
