Shallow End Lyrics

You had a heart tattoo under your eye

Cloth seats all leaned back got it stuck in my mind, before we put it in drive

Now we're out on our feet, trying to release all the faults of two kids on the asphalt

But I was in too deep cause I remember it all

When I had you, and I misused

Every little piece of love and faith you put in me

Like raindrops in an empty sea

Now I miss you, and that tattoo

And even though these memories are only of how life begins

Like swimming in the shallow end, they're still deep enough to drown in

And now we're running for it, taking cover under angels

Ain't jealous hell it's alright

But sometimes at night, get this feeling inside

Like they're ain't nothing left but to break down and die

Cause I had all the sun, and the wind, and the rain

Ya you gave everything, and I let it slip away

Ya I had you, and I misused

Every little piece of love and faith you put in me

Like raindrops in an empty sea

Now I miss you, and that tattoo

And even though these memories are only of how life begins

Like swimming in the shallow end, they're still deep enough to drown in

And I know

That I can't go

Back to where this whole thing started so

I guess

I'll digress

And live this life just like a reject

It's all been

Fading

Can nothing feel like when it all began

I had you, and I misused

Every little piece of love and faith you put in me

Your raindrops in my empty sea

Now I miss you, that damn tattoo

Only in my mind, reminding how it all began

No longer swimming in the shallow end, now lifes deep enough to drown in

(the number you have dialed is not available at present, please leave your message after the beep)

Ya I fight this rust and you ain't there

I break my back and you don't care

I'm a house without a home, a dog without a bone

A rock without a beat, roll without a stone

But I got this heart inside my chest

I'll give you life, you bring the rest

Cause this worlds a weight, a ball, a chain

Ain't nothing here, gunna ease my pain

Ya I want a life above the noise

A song that rips right through this void

With words that cut just like a knife

I want everything, and I want it all tonight

Ya I need the earth, the dirt, the waves

Of ocean air, and all this space

The sun, the moon, the rain, the wind

I want everything, then I want it all again
