Shallow 1

Shallow 2

Shallow. A worksheet by by Iria García and Jorge Longarela.

1. Find opposites for the underlined words.

Tell me something boy
Are you miserable in this old  world?
Or do you need less?
Is there something else you’re searching for?

I’m falling
In all the bad times
I find myself longing for change
And in the good times I fear myself

2. Write  the words in phonetics

Tell me something boy
Aren’t you tired trying to /fɪl/ that void?
Or do you need /mɔː(r)/ ?
Ain’t it hard keeping it so hardcore?

I’m falling
In all the good times
I find myself /ˈlɒŋɪŋ/ for change
And in the bad times  /fɪə(r)/ myself

I’m off the deep end
Watch as I dive in
I’ll never meet the ground
Crash  /θruː/ the surface
Where they can’t hurt us
We’re far from the shallow now
