Half a Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was wrong to say I loved her
I was wrong to think I'm right
When I told her it was over
Well my darling I had lied
I've been running from my demons
Afraid to look behind
I've been running from myself
Afraid of what I'd find
But how am I supposed to love you
When I don't love who I am?
And how can I give you all of me
When I'm only half a man?
'Cause I'm a sinking ship that's burning
So, let go of my hand
Oh, how can I give you all of me
When I'm only half a man
And now I'm stuck in this hotel room
By a cold neon light
And I've been waiting for an answer
But it won't come tonight
And every bottle I had stolen
Lay, shattered on the floor
What's broken can't be whole anymore
But how am I supposed to love you
When I don't love who I am?
And how can I give you all of me
When I'm only half a man
'Cause I'm a sinking ship that's burning
So, let go of my hand
Oh, how can I give you all of me
When I'm only half a man
And no one can ever hurt me
Like I, hurt myself
'Cause I'm made out of stone
And I'm beyond help
Don't give your heart to me
But how am I supposed to love you
When I don't love who I am
And how can I give you all of me
When I'm only half a man
'Cause I'm a sinking ship that's burning
So, let go of my hand
And how can I give you all of me
When I'm only half a man
