Sondre Lerche Don't Be Shallow
Forcin' my way out of sleep
I inhale the smell of spring and greens
And bucketloads of bees
The migraine's been all over me
The softest meadow would've cracked my head
I'm easily mislead
And you're standin' in my way
So give yourself a pair of hands today
My words to you are fake
Now you are my mistake
And I am yours
Don't be shallow
Don't be cheap
She prays for you to grow up
Patiently
Don't be selfish
Nor unmanaged
You're all I want and nothing more
But that's not good enough
No, no that's not good enough
Trouble at the hardware store
A funky foreign bodies interfere
We like you don't come near
But all that seems a waste of time
When you are sent to take the final test
In the solemn quest
She'll tell you to stand and watch
The violent fields that pray so much
Their ears are falling from the sky
Well most of them now hide and
I am yours
Don't be shallow
Don't be cheap
She prays for you to grow up patiently
Don't be selfish
Nor unmanaged
You're all i want and nothing more
But that's not good enough
No, no that's not good enough
She'll tell you to stand and watch
The violent fields that pray so much
Their ears are falling from the sky
Well most of them now hide and
I am yours
Don't be shallow
Don't be cheap
She prays for you to grow up patiently
Don't be selfish
Nor unmanaged
You're all i want and nothing more
But that's not good enough
No, no that's not good enough
Oh, no that's not good enough
