Emery - In Shallow Seas We Sail lyrics

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

(You sold yourself, and) You sold yourself
You'll never learn
And here I am watching the summer fading
(The summer we shared fade
Away with the winter)
(Your hands were warm, now they're) Your
Hands were warm on my face
Now they're cold and pushing away
Slowly away (Colder than ice and they are
Slowly pushing me away, pushing me away)
Pushing me away

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

(You sold yourself, and) You sold yourself
You'll never learn
And here I am watching the summer fading
(The summer we shared fade
Away with the winter)
(Your hands were warm, now they're) Your
Hands were warm on my face
Now they're cold and pushing away
Slowly away
(Colder than ice and they are slowly
Pushing me away, pushing me away
Pushing me away) pushing me away
Pushing me away

Lust can give a man 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)
I thought your love was as safe
As the promise you made
(Was only as safe as the promise you made)

(Now I am drowning in) You are the storm
(Your shallow sea, I swear) The
Wind and the waves, that break me in two
(You are the waves that toss me
Away) And toss me away
I fell apart when I fell for you

(How can I float above the
Water that fills my
Lungs?) You are the water filling my lungs
Killing me softly
(Killing me softly without a
Word) Without a word, without a word
