Half Life - Employed To Serve

Never realised how much I took my life for granted

BITTER

This shadow won’t shift

Rain clouds that never burst

HINDSIGHT

Nothing grows in the shade

Fragments of my life just burn away

Hollow, jaded, a heart with no hope

Part of me is missing, can’t you see?

Half life

Don’t you dismiss the way I feel

I CAN’T run away from my thoughts

I wish the ground would swallow me

Curse the clouds that have followed me

Desperate for normality

A shred of consistency

Everyday is worse than the last

Every time I reach forward my hands rot away

Revealing delicate nerves where skin used to be

Please let me live again

I’ve been searching in the dark

For the other half of me

Composed with a stiff upper lip

And yet dying on the inside

Nothing grows in the shade

Fragments of my life just burn away

Hollow, jaded, a heart with no hope

Searching for the other half of me
