Shallows

Come watch me from inside

You won't get by with that whimper

Might shed some tears

But you'll never find the answer after all these years

You're back and forth and you can follow the course

You can dive, you can crawl, you can make it worse

You can follow your pain, you can follow your path

Your heart's a mess and it keeps faulty time

You could erode here in my own arms

Does it hurt so bad you've gotta tear me up?

If it hurts so bad, why do you care at all?

'Cause I will burn, I'll be remembered at my worst

And they will say you were always in the way

There's a place for your problems, the ones you made up

I was never one to worry if you had given up

'Cause I was born to be in the shallows

I was born to be in the shallows

Does it hurt so bad you've gotta tear me up?

If it hurts so bad, why do you care at all?

'Cause I will burn, I'll be remembered at my worst

And they will say you were always in the way

I was pouring out my soul

Into a place that you should never go

I am the place you should never go

'Cause you will erode in my own arms

Does it hurt so bad you've gotta tear me up?

If it hurts so bad, why do you care at all?

'Cause I will burn, I'll be remembered at my worst

And they will say you were always in the way

I was born to be in the shallows

So come watch me from inside
