Half Life

Held the glass half empty in half light
Held his breath half awake in the night
Half believed all the half-assed denials
Half believed in his own failing sight

Bits and pieces of a half life

Baby steps in a black hole of blue ink
They half the distance but never arrive
Half a mind to reduce it to nothing
Too far gone always beats half-alive

Bits and pieces of a half life

Full of life, up to here
Choking down the doubt and fear
Force fed back his every word
Stretched to burst by the absurd

Bits and pieces of a half life

Sickly grin in a thousand places
Cat junkie eyes always follow
Burned a hole in a million faces
Bury him where no flowers grow

Sticky, stuck in some slippery substance
Some Petri puck with a bum chromosome
One more god with a fear of high places
Another fool who got lost halfway home

Bits and pieces of a half life
