Shallow

Shallow is the eight track on the first album of Poets of the Fall, Signs of Life.

Lyrics
''More in my face  Than is my taste  I grow so weary I'll surrender''

''To what they say  Let them lead the way  Till' I can no longer remember''

''My darling dreams  Prewritten scenes  Whatever felt my own''

''So to save face  I'll take my place  Where I may safely feel alone''

''Glad the waters are so shallow  When the river runs so cold''

''I'm quick to wait  Too slow to take  They call me gracious for my patience''

''And I feel proud  Under that shroud And all the while it's all evasion

''Some humor here  To fend off fear  And I'm a little more lost, oh dear''

''So to save face  I'll hold my place  So I may safely feel alone...''
