"Half Life" lyrics

"Half Life"

Never realised how much I took my life for granted
BITTER
This shadow won't shift
Rain clouds that never burst
HINDSIGHT

Nothing grows in the shade
Fragments of my life just burn away

Hollow, jaded, a heart with no hope
Part of me is missing, can't you see?
Half life

Don't you dismiss the way I feel
I CAN'T run away from my thoughts
I wish the ground would swallow me
Curse the clouds that have followed me

Desperate for normality
A shred of consistency
Everyday is worse than the last
Every time I reach forward my hands rot away
Revealing delicate nerves where skin used to be
Please let me live again

I've been searching in the dark
For the other half of me

Composed with a stiff upper lip
And yet dying on the inside

Nothing grows in the shade
Fragments of my life just burn away

Hollow, jaded, a heart with no hope
Searching for the other half of me
