Shallow
Shallow as a pond that you can see right through,
I know what to expect, its nothing new
People focus on the silly things, not what really matters
For if they saw what was really valuable,
Their inch deep world would shatter
They have no substance, they are paper thin
To be this way is quite a sin
To only see the outside, not what really counts
This way of viewing the world, will never in truth amount
