[Verse 1]
You held her and said
"I'm not worthy, but I'll try to be a better man."
"If you don't have the time then leave
I've been waiting all year for something that was never really here."
"Well you were never really here."

[Verse 2]
Your nose and your throat
And everything that's in between
Two eyes just like mine
A pair I wish could've seen
The times you were the best you could be with me
We were never meant to be
We were happening

[Chorus]
You're a shallow hole and everyone can see
If I called you now would you be there to answer me?
Cause I don't know if I would answer you
When I cross the gates and I find you

[Verse 3]
Remember you said
You're so nervous you're so tired
Cheap talk, unsteady walk
For such a pretty liar
Finding old souls to cast a mold
And then set fire
And if you want I could take you higher and higher

[Chorus]
You're a shallow hole and everyone can see
If I called you now would you be there to answer me?
Cause I don't know if I would answer you
When I cross the gates and I find you

[Bridge]
I don't know what I've been told
The road I walked was paved with gold
But oh, you didn't want to go

I don't know what I've been told
The road I walked was paved with gold
But oh, you didn't want to go

Well I don't know if I would answer you
When I cross the gates and I find you

[Chorus]
You're a shallow hole and everyone can see
If I called you now would you be there to answer me?
Cause I don't know if I would answer you
When I cross the gates and I find you
Shallow hole and everyone can see
And if I called you now would you be there to answer me?
Cause I don't know if I would answer you
When I cross the gates
