In the Shallows Lyrics

Lyric discussion by asjklmp 

Cover art for In the Shallows lyrics by Daughter

to me this songs sounds so bittersweet. its the point in the relationship whether you can go through the crap or you can let it ruin you guys. i think she wants him to stay a bit longer but she has determined that she will leave. she just wants a few more minutes with him. i think.

My Opinion

right on, i feel it too, as if a relationship is at its end, and one of the two is pleading that if you leave me, you'll find me in the shallows, the darkness that falls after a relationship ends. the rest of the lyrics just expresses all these bad things that would happen if he/she leaves.
