HALF ME GONE

 

HALF ME GONE

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

CLOSER  BECOMES FARAWAY 

I USED TO SAY

I KNEW WHERE I'D LAND

NOW THERE'S SO LITTLE

I'M SURE OF

I DON'T KNOW 

THE DIFFERENCE ANYMORE 

BETWEEN HAPPY OR SAD

 SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE

WAS A FINE LINE I MISSED

BETWEEN JOY AND MISERY

 

I LOOK BUT ALL I SEE

IS A MASK 

THE SADNESS ETCHED IN FOR GOOD

I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO

I THINK I'VE DONE ALL I COULD

WHEN LESS BECOMES MORE

ITS TURNED INTO THREE OR FOUR

THE PAIN THE WEAR

HALF ME GONE

I TRY TO STAY

COME WHAT MAY

 

THE WEATHER THE STORM

WILL I EMERGE UNHARMED

NIGHT OR DAY

THEY PASS THE SAME

DRIFTING ON

SWALLOWED BY CONSEQUENCE

THAT I SEEM TO OWN

IN THE UNTAMED WIND

LIE THE ANSWERS

LEADING ME ON

PUSHING ME OUT TO FLY

WHEN IT STOPS

NO ONE WILL WONDER WHY
