Half A Life Songtext / Lyric

I've been meaning to ask you

How life looks from the nose bleed seats

And to ask you how it feels to bleed

Your life's a waste



And the way that I'll ask it

Will have revenge woven throughout

But will be masked with the concern

That a friend would bring, you're so incomplete



Hold a mirror to show just what you've become

And read your diary to figure out where things went wrong

I don't think I'll ever understand

How a cowardly cat can call himself a man



You're all show and it's getting old

You're all show and it's getting old



As for the rest of us, we'll do fine with what we have

Making the best of what is left

And you're a naysayer who will never know

What it's like to really have half a life






I've been meaning to harm you

In the best way that I see fit

I'm not sure if this did the trick

But I think it did



Hold a mirror to show just what you've become

And read your eulogy to figure out where things went wrong

I hope one day you understand

A girl on your arm won't make you a man



You're all show and it's getting old

You're all show and it's getting old



As for the rest of us, we'll do fine with what we have

Making the best of what is left

And you're a naysayer who will never know

What it's like to really have half a life



Keep walking down your shallow lonely road

It's dark and cold and it's yours and yours alone



If you dig too deep are you scared you'll find something

As spoonfuls of shit will surely add up

Inside you're begging for a cure for your disease

You're life's a crime scene and it won't help to blame me



As for the rest of us, we'll do fine with what we have

Make the best of what is left

And you're a naysayer who will never know

What it's like to really have half a life
