Half Life

Duncan Sheik

I'm awake in the afternoon
I fell asleep in the living room
And it's one of those moments
When everything is so clearBefore the truth goes back into hiding
I want to decide 'cause it's worth deciding
To work on finding something more than this fearIt takes so much out of me to pretend
Tell me now, tell me how to make amendsMaybe, I need to see the daylight
To leave behind the half-life
Don't you see I'm breaking downLately, something here don't feel right
This is just a half-life
Is there really no escape?
No escape from time
Of any kindI keep trying to understand
This thing and that thing, my fellow man
I guess I'll let you know
When I figure it outBut I don't mind a few mysteries
They can stay that way it's fine by me
And you are another mystery I am missingIt takes so much out of me to pretendMaybe, I need to see the daylight
To leave behind the half-life
Don't you see I'm breaking downLately, something here don't feel right
This is just a half-life
Is there really no escape?
No escape from time
Of any kindCome on lets fall in love [Repeat: x3]
AgainCause lately something here don't feel right
This is just a half-life,
Without you I am breaking downWake me, let me see the daylight
Save me from this half-life
Let's you and I escape
Escape from timeCome on lets fall in love [Repeat: x3]
Again
