“Shallow” by Magnolia Park is about being in a toxic relationship where you know that your partner is a bad person, but you can’t help but go back to them. I’ve found myself in this position many times, unfortunately, and it’s always hard to get out of these relationships. When you’re someone who hates themselves, you are drawn to someone who will show you any ounce of attention. These people are bad for you, but you can’t help but keep returning every time they call because you think it’s all you deserve.
Important Lyrics
“You’re lucky I get lonely, or I’d leave you all alone. You’re my highest high and you’re my lowest low. I need you just like heroin I want you in my bones”
“The only time you love me’s when the lights out”
“Now I can see your love is so shallow”
“Touch me one more time so I can just forget all the lies and games you play inside my head”
