Lyrics
The Shallows
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Come sit against the sword
Come black with sin
Come reach and pour
I'll let you in
Come defend em
Come learn to live
You'll see a change
I'll promise it
Down at the waters edge
Swimming in the shallows
We're all friends here
And that's what matters
That's what matters
Come young and old
Come sunk with shame
Come back, come home
Don't ever leave
Down at the water's edge
Swimming in the shallows
We're all friends here
And that's what matters
That's what matters
Come sick and sleep
Come black with sin
Come reach and pour
I'll let you in
Down at the water's edge
Swimming in the shallows
We're all friends here
And that's what matters
That's what matters
