Ocean Lyrics - Sebadoh

So you think youre in the middle of the ocean 

Stranded on an island of your own 

Or stuck in the top of a mountain 

Either way youre gonna say youre all alone 

And I hesitate to say that youre a liar 

I never tell the truth myself 

But I tried to chase you down and I got tired 

So Im leaving you to you or someone else 

Cause you never wanna hook up in the middle 

And Id meet you there to talk if you would show 

But you answer every question with a riddle 

And refuse to even choose to let me go 

It used to be Id tell you all my secrets 

Giving you the credit you deserve 

I guess you didnt care to lose or keep it 

And we never quite connected from the first 

And I wish I had a way to make it better 

To rearrange the world and make you smile 

But its dumb to even think I had that power 

And we havent been that close in a while 

And I dont even wanna try to name it 

Explain it for the one who couldnt care 

Cause all that matters is the way you choose to frame it 

And I hesitate to say that youre a liar 

I never tell the truth myself 

But I tried to chase you down and I got tired 

So Im leaving you to you or someone else 

Cause you never wanna hook up in the middle 

And Id meet you there to talk if you would show 

But you answer every question with a riddle 

And refuse to even choose to let me go
