Lyrics for Song: Half Life 
Lyrics for Album: Ellipse [2009]
  
               
  33609>I knew that I'd get like this again
  That's why I try to keep at bay
  Be a hundred percent when I'm with you
  And then the perfect heart's length away
 
 
  The stickler is you've played not one beat wrong
  You never promised me anything
  Even sat me down and warned me just how they fall
  I knew the odds were I'd never win
  Yet here I am
 
 
  It's a half life with you as my quarterback
  A daft 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
 
 
  Got a schedule to stick to
  Got a world to keep sweet
  You're so much to everyone all the time
  Will you ever slow down
  Will I ever come first
  The universe contracts to sigh
 
 
  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
 
 
  Hold me
  Darling please
 
 
  Hold me
  Darling please
 
 
  You know you'll never be lonely
  No
  You'll always be loved
  And maybe you 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 quarterback
  A daft life
