Lyrics
Shallow
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.
Take your time
Don't be so shallow
'Cause shallow's a mess
You don't want, trust me
Speak your mind
Don't be so shallow
'Cause shallow's a mess
You don't want, trust me
But if you still love me
Just tell me you do
'Cause I'm here and I just wanna know
Do you have what it takes?
To forget me this way?
Are you tired of sleeping alone?
Or are you not alone?
Well, maybe it's time that I go
'Cause I'm right in front of you
But you don't even notice how there's nothing left but your bones
And they're beautiful
Even though you're a ghost you're still taking up most of my heart
(Most of my heart)
Save your time, just breathe
I am already a mess
You don't want, trust me
Gave up, gave up
I know you are already a mess you don't want, trust me
(Yeah, yeah)
If you still love me, just tell me you do
'Cause I'm here and I just wanna know
Do you have what it takes to forget what it takes?
To forget me this way?
Are you tired of sleeping alone?
Or are you not alone?
Or are you not coming home?
Well, maybe it's time that I go
'Cause I'm right in front of you
But you don't even notice how there's nothing left but your bones
(Nothing but your bones)
And they're beautiful
Even though you're a ghost, you're still taking up most
(Even though you're a ghost you're still taking up most) of my heart
Now I see
That there's nothing left in the water for me
So I'll dig, and I'll dig, 'til I find your bones
'Til I find your bones
Maybe it's time that I go
'Cause I'm right in front of you
Well, maybe it's time that I go
'Cause I'm right in front of you
And you didn't even notice
How there's nothing left but your bones
And they're beautiful
Even though you're a ghost you're still taking up most of my heart
(Most of my heart, taking up most of my heart, most of my heart)
Even though you're a ghost, you're still taking up most of my heart
(Most of my heart)
Even though you're a ghost, you're still taking up most of my heart
Or are you not alone?
