Emery - In Shallow Seas We Sail Lyrics

I've got eyes in the back of my head
And I see where you're goin' with this, I'm not surprised
You take me for a fool, maybe you're right
If I was wiser I would not have let myself come here tonight

You sold yourself, you never learn
(You sold yourself)
Here I am watching the summer fading
(The summer we shared fades away with the winter)

Your hands were warm on my face, now they're crashing away
(Your hands were warm now)
Slowly now
(Slower than [Incomprehensible])
Pushing me away, pushing me away

I knew it right from the start
(I knew it)
I got this big, big hole in my heart
I wanted to put you in
(I wanted)
But for some reason you just wouldn't fit
You just wouldn't fit

You sold yourself, you never learn
(You sold yourself)
Here I am watching the summer fading
(The summer we shared fades away with the winter)

Your hands were warm on my face, now they're crashing away
(Your hands were warm now)
Slowly now pushing me away
(Slower than [Incomprehensible])
Pushing me away, pushing me away, pushing me away

Lust kept giving men so many regrets
Just this once is what we tell ourselves

Ships don't sink if they have wind in their sails
But if the wind fails, is there hope for me?
(I guess your love wasn't so safe, the promise you made)
I thought your love was safe, the promise you made

Now I am drowning in your shallow sea, I swim
(You are the storm, the wind and the waves)
(You break me in two and toss me away)
You are the waves that toss me in
(I fell apart when I fell for you)

How can I float above the water that fills my lungs?
(You are the water filing my lungs)
(Killing me softly without a word, without a word)
