Half Life Lyrics

Half life wastes before it goes
It's funny how your bee sting touch never leaves me whole
It's not enough to stay here almost trying
You keep your last laugh watch this dying
It's just half time vertigo
And if you want an answer I don't know

If you had completed me
Don't think I'd be pleased with you
Don't think I'd compete with you
With half of me to take

Half life nothing I'd call home
It's lucky how these phantom limb bee stings never show
It's not enough to leave this falling kindly
You burn my star down twice as brightly
It's just your half light undertow
But if you need forgiveness I don't know

Half light breaks with nothing wrong
Just a corner of my bed where you don't belong
It's kind of you to notice no one's dying
You choked your last laugh almost crying
It's just your half life long to know
And if you need a reason so it goes

What is the Meaning of Half Life?

There's no doubt in my mind, in some way, this song has to do with drug abuse and escaping the relationship with them, or even a person that has the same strong, magnetic influence as a drug itself. The term "Half-life" is commonly used when describing certain drugs, which leads me to believe the title is a play on words. "Bee stings" Would be track marks, the desperation in trying to hide them. Again, this could be purely metaphorical and describing the abusive relationship with a partner who's sucking the life from you, leaving you only partially fulfilled but empty, above all.
