Shallow Lyrics

SHALLOW

WORDS AND MUSIC: POPE

© 2005 POPENOTES MUSIC (ascap)



THERE ARE TWO ROADS TO CHOOSE

TO WALK TOWARDS LIFE OR DEATH

ONE LEADS TO THE FATHER IN HEAVEN

THE OTHER TO THE PIT



YOU CAN WALK

ALL OVER THE EARTH

BUT NOT KNOW LIFE

OR ITS REWARDS

YOU CAN TALK

AND NOT LIVE AT ALL

ONLY FOOLS

HEED NOT HIS WORD



THERE IS NO MIDDLE GROUND

IN THIS LIFE THAT WE LIVE

ONLY BLACK OR WHITE

YOU CAN TAKE OR GIVE



YOU CAN JUDGE

UPON THE PAST

BUT KNOW THIS

THAT NEVER LASTS

YOU CAN IGNORE

ALL THE SCRIPTURE

BUT KNOW THIS THEN

YOU'LL HAVE NO FUTURE



chorus

THE LIFE YOU LIVE

YOU HAVE A CHOICE

TO LIVE HOW YOU SEE FIT

BUT JUDGE ME NOT

LEST YE BE JUDGED

FOR THE LIFE

YOU CHOOSE TO LIVE



THERE IS NOT A MAN LIVING

AMONG ANY MEN

WHO CAN SAY HE'S BLAMELESS

OR FREE FROM SIN



YOU CAN BE

SHALLOW AND DEAD

YOU CAN LIVE

A LIFE OF FEAR

YOU CAN TASTE

OF SPIRITUAL DEATH

OR ACCEPT CHRIST

BE FREED FROM SIN



chorus

THE LIFE YOU LIVE

YOU HAVE A CHOICE

TO LIVE HOW YOU SEE FIT

BUT JUDGE ME NOT

LEST YE BE JUDGED

FOR THE LIFE

YOU CHOOSE TO LIVE
