Shallow

I wish as the father of a thought that

Rather doesn't even question

It wonders at its best

It has no shame to suggest you format a concept.

Now is it a fragrance, or is it a stench?

This scent that comes along with the greediest of hands

As you laugh out loud

And do not need to hear the facade,

It crumbles.

These are lines that you could not erase.

Yours are words so easy to deflate.

And you smell the money, but you miss the point

Now let us stir the stagnant water into life.

As we swim and try not to sink

And drown in an ocean of pity.

I wonder "What is shallow?"

I wonder who is wise.

All I know is the fear makes you

Mock all that's true,

Measure by resemblance and murder what's pure.

We get stuck in between, remain unseen

Customize

These are lines that you could not erase.

Yours are words so easy to deflate.

And you smell the money, but you miss the point

Now let us stir the stagnant water into life.

Mocking all that is true

Measured by resemblance.

Gently murdering what's pure

Laughing out loud.

(2x)

These are lines that you could not erase.

Yours are words so easy to deflate.

And you smell the money, but you miss the point

Now let us stir the stagnant water into life.

This identity cannot be slain, these are lines that you can not erase.
