NIGHTCRAWLER 6,985 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I'm in the hype for ENIGMA right now and the time won't pass quickly tonight. So I decided to confess myself.. I have a heavy weight on my shoulders that I have to let go.... Hold on to your chair... Are you readyforit.mp3???? So, now that I heard Shallow hundred times, now that I know every word by heart and now that I can sing any instrument, any back vocals and any drum of the song... I still need explanations : What does "We're far from the shallow now" mean????? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hausofcy 20,325 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I'M CACKLING you can look at it both ways: literally: they're not in shallow waters anymore which means they're in the deep metaphorically: they're not shallow anymore which means they share a real/deep connection or something like that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korok 4,272 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I interpreted it as falling into a very deep relationship. "Tell me somethin', girl Are you happy in this modern world?" Modern world representing something "shallow". "I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in I'll never meet the ground Crash through the surface, where they can't hurt usWe're far from the shallow now" In other words, we're far from that shallow-leveled love.

Didymus 34,380 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Basically shallow is a synonym for the superficial here, it literally refers to the shallow or "undeep" parts of the sea, for example. As Jackson and Ally move away from the superficial parts of life (Ally's supposed ugliness, Jack's fame), they can come together on a deeper, more true and real level. Simultaneously, it also means you're in the depths of the ocean, and life is difficult there. It's easy to stay close to the surface, but you'll probably never get to really live life. So it's a double thing. And this double-edged sword layer is reinforced by the lyrics: 'In all the good times, I find myself longing for change. And in the bad times, I fear myself.' The good times are the ones in which they are actually in the shallow (safe but not content), the bad times are the times in which they're enveloped by the crashing waves. It's in those rocky waves that real life is, nevertheless. And even though it might hurt (the tragic ending of the film), it is ultimately real and precious (the final singing scene).
