Shallow Lyrics

by Hurt

You're watching the cars,
Movies and stars
They are your lifetime
Yet all that I am is
Half what we are
Maybe some other time

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e84031-hurt~shallow_lyrics.html ]
I'll get it right I'll get it right
Oh sweet voice on the phone
You sound so alone
'Cause you couldn't be wasted
Yet all that I ever was
To you I am
I'm less than a man

That slowly changes out of phase
And I don't know why it is
It's an ever-changing simple thing
That I miss
While watching TV
Take in what you say

So you're death is painless
When all that I ever was
Returns again
I'm all that I am
And I'll get it right
When I get it right
'Cause I'll get it right
When I get it right

But I'm slowly changing out of phase
And I don't know why it is
It's an ever-changing simple thing that I know
But don't know why it is
That I'm longing for
A sweet embrace, which I miss
