Shallow Like Your Breath Lyrics
Help me try to understand the great diversion that came and tore us down.
Lean onto me, lean into you.
Comfort I once knew slowly disappears.
Holding up your own by letting go our grasp.
Don't say a thing, don't move a word.
Shallow like your breath you hold while you're under these lights that bury you.
They show the scars we hide too well.
Notice you're awake dreaming while you walk.
Halls we create, are closing in on us.
You're tired so let's shut it off.
It's time to count all the victims that were caught in our last explosion.
We are the couple called suicide.
You're tired so let's turn the lights out,
You're tired so let's shut it off.
i agree, this song is powerful and beautiful without being cheezy or predictable. to me its about letting go of a relationship that was never meant to be.
This is one of the greatest songs I have ever heard in my entire life. It's really ironic, because I have not ever had the chance to really understand the lyrics. I made the mistake of burning this cd, and not actually buying it yet. I love Elliott as a band, and as real people who are not afraid of who they are. Shallow like your breath made me cry even before I knew the words. Thank God for this website. I've found every song that I wanted so far. Rock on.
