Duncan Sheik - Half Life

I'm awake in the afternoon, I fell asleep in the living room
and it's one of those moments when everything is so clear.

Before the truth goes back into hiding,
I want to decide 'cause it's worth deciding
to work on finding something more than this fear.

It takes so much out of me to pretend.
Tell me now, tell me how to make amends.

Maybe, I need to see the daylight, leave behind the half-life.
Don't you see I'm breaking down?
Oh, lately, something here don't feel right,
This is just a half-life, is there really no escape?
No escape from time; of any kind?

I keep trying to understand this thing and that thing, my fellow man.
I guess I'll let you know when I figure it out,
And I don't mind a few mysteries, they can stay that way it's fine by me,
But you are another mystery I am missing.

It takes too much out of me to pretend.
Maybe, I need to see the daylight, leave behind the half-life.
Don't you see I'm breaking down?
Oh, lately, something here don't feel right.
This is just a half-life, is there really no escape?
No escape from time; of any kind?

Come on lets fall in love, come on lets fall in love,
Come on lets fall in love, again.

'Cause lately something here don't feel right.
This is just a half-life, without you I am breaking down.
Oh, wake me, I wanna see the daylight, save me from this half-life
Let's you and I escape, escape from time.
Come on lets fall in love, come on lets fall in love,
Come on lets fall in love, again.

Now Listening (ironically): Radiohead - Black Star
