Halfway There

Soundgarden · King Animal [2012]

I woke up with my feet nailed down and my head moving the speed of sound

Had a dream I was caught in a maze and I couldn't find my way back out

Some were born to move mountains around and some to rot away in jail

I get an itch and when I am scratching everything can go to hell



And how far is halfway there? I didn't see you on the trail

Did almost become good enough? Should a good life be so hard won?

Is that what our dreams have become?



Sometimes when you're shooting an arrow it can fly across the sky so proud

I would go all the way to the sun if I didn't have to come back down



And how far is halfway there? I didn't see you on the trail

Did almost become good enough? Should a good life be so hard won

Is that what our dreams have become?



Have you got a car? Somewhere to sleep?

Someone who loves you? Something to eat?

I would say you're doing better than most

Though maybe not as well as some



And how far is halfway there? I didn't see you on the trail

Did almost become good enough? Should a good life be so hard won?

Is that what our dreams have become? Is that what our dreams have become?
