Real friends are so far away
And there's so much I wish to say
I knew I'd find you once again in this great pool of life
You never understood it's not what we take...
But what we give to the world that makes us feel great
You're pretending to swim
But just drifting out to sea
I knew I'd find you once again
Out of your depth in life
Still playing in the shallow end
Stealing someone else's dreams
Stop cheating in the shallow end
Risking nothing, absolutely nothing for your schemes
Call yourself a friend!
You think you walk on water,
Because you are so hollow
You'll beg, steal and borrow just for an easier life
You never understood it's not what we take...
But what we give to the world that makes us feel great
You're pretending to swim
But just drifting out to sea
I knew I'd find you once again
Out of your depth in life
Still playing in the shallow end
Stealing someone else's dreams
Stop cheating in the shallow end
Risking nothing, absolutely nothing for your schemes
Call yourself a friend!
And you're pretending to swim
But just drifting out to sea
While I braved the rocks and the storms
With ideals about a journey
Through hell and high-water
Still playing in the shallow end
Stealing someone else's dreams
Stop cheating in the shallow end
Risking nothing, absolutely nothing for your schemes
Stop playing...
