Letra de Half life

My self-worth measured in text back tempo
It´s been two days and eight minutes too slow
Well, 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
You´re so much to everyone all the time
Will it ever slow down? Will I ever come first?
The universe contracts to sigh

It´s a half life with you as my quarter back
A daft life
It´s a half life with you as my quarter back
A daft life

Hold me
Hold me
Hold 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
But for the surplus that 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 compressed tight to explode
I´m clenching my ticket to the only way out
As you disappear in a puff of smoke

It´s a half life with you as my quarter back
A daft life
