Half of Me

Half of me is tied up in our life
But half of me keeps one eye on the knife
Called upon by spirits from the
golden cemetery
I’m living in a fantasy that I’m ever
cutting free

Of that half of me who is timid and afraid
But half of me wants to leave the life
we’ve made
And go out blazing trails in a haze of
rock and roll
But my other half she laughs like it’s a joke
Fighting for the soul

Of half of me — that is all she ever gets
But half of me knows that half of me regrets
Ripping through the years without a hope
of happiness
But failure never held me any fears until I
had success
But half of me deserves everything he gets

Half of me is ready to retire
But half of me is till riven with a fire
Driving me to conjure up the passions
of the past
Undignified and faithless to the last and
so it has to be
That half of me is forever running free
From half of me
