Summary - incase you dont wanna read all the way down.
i knew that i'd get like this again, that's why i try to keep at bay
be a 100 percent when i'm with you and then
the perfect heart's length away
the stickler is your plague, not one beat wrong
you never promised me anything
even set me down, warn me just how they fall
i knew the odds were i'd never win and here i am
it's a half life
with you as my quarterback
a daft life
myself worth measured in text-back tempo
it's been two days and eight minutes too slow
there may well be others but I still like to pretend
that i'm the one you really want to grow old with
i've got a schedule to stick to, got a world to keep sweet
it's so much to everyone all the time
will you ever slow down? will i ever come first?
the universe contracts to size
it's a half life
with you as my quarterback
a daft life
it's a half life
with you as my quarterback
a daft life
( Optional)
oh, me
( Optional)
oh, me
( Optional)
oh, me
darling please
you know you'll never be lonely no, you'll always be loved
and maybe, you'll never need more than that
of others sapless little loves, what's to become of us?
does it even register on your conscience?
long for one last showdown from a box in a crowd
air compress tight to explode
i'm clenching my ticket to the only way out
as you disappear in a puff of smoke
its a half life
with you as my quarterback
a daft life
End on C. Or G. whatever you prefer. C = happy ending, G = Sad ending in my opinion.
