I never thought I'd be a soldier
I take my place inside the battle
I've come to realize, the journey is over
Realize that life is soberEveryday I'm like a soldier
Waking up within the battle
And through the haze I live a dream that's better
Than what I feel inside, diggin' in meSuffering darkness, in my eyes against the light of Rome
I see the reflection of the ghost that I've become
Waiting behind the windows, I resign to be alone
I want to feel alone and lost in this solitudeShallow life, I'll stay close to the ground
Shallow life, the walls keep falling down
I close my eyes, I'll find my way around
In the shallow lifeWelcome to the bottom lineSuffering darkness in my eyes against the night of Rome
I get confused and all I hear is just myself
I will resign and search for peace of mind, I'm on my own
I need to be alone and lost in this solitudeShallow life, I'll stay close to the ground
Shallow life, the walls keep falling down
I close my eyes, I'll find my way around
In the shallow lifeThe walls keep falling
Shallow life, I'll stay close to the ground
Shallow life, the walls keep falling down
I close my eyes, I'll find my way around
In the shallow life, shallow lifeWelcome to the bottom line
