Holcombe Waller Shallow Lyrics

Muddled in the plans
To be a woman or a man
To be a woman or a man
Spinning in the wake
Of an apple and a snake
Oh an apple and a snake
I set out alone
Out, out of house and home
Out, a toothbrush and a comb
Looking for you
But i don't know how to find you
I don't know how to recognize you
I have fought for you, I
Have put my needs above you
Made a pederast of you
I've rustled through the leaves, oh
Your bushes and your trees, oh
Your fables and your thieves
And i don't know one thing
Don't know one thing about you
Don't know an emptiness without you
But stillness is the proof In stillness i can tell you move
Stillness i can tell you're moving
And when you finally floated
Up for me to see you
Shallow enough for me to meet you
I could not accept that i was floating within you
Ocean with no land to swim to
And it was only time
That moved the boundaries to hold me
Moved the pattern to enfold me
And it was only prayer
That echoed like time was even there
Echoes like time is even there
One way or another
We are going to meet each other
One way or another
We are going to meet each other
We are going to meet each other
We are going to meet each other
