letra de half way home - deeexpus

we sit together
in i.t. cl-ss
me and her
in nineteen eighty something
bits and bytes
playing second drum
to our own curriculum

we laugh and we joke
we live on a prayer
so early days
no burden, no care
everyone
is in awe of her
perfect beauty, i swear
i swear

behind the smile
and beautiful eyes
a pain lies dormant
a deep hurt resides
she didn’t know it
couldn’t have a clue
what lay in store
and what she might do

she’s only half way home
she’s not yet half way home

(school ends)
time and tides go by, my parted friend
we meet again, coincidence and chance
quietly, 37 candles burn
she’s only half way, only half way

she stands in her wedding dress on a cold saint stephen’s day
las vegas for her honey moon
new year in the usa
a whole new life with him
’til death it does them part
hides her problems underneath her veil
gonna be a brand new start

everything appears right for her
on the surface it seems at least
all the demons exorcised
she’s tamed the hidden beast

but the rats of paranoia gnawing on her mind
emerging from the darkness
how could she be so blind?

she stands broken on the viaduct on a cold and lonely night
holds her wedding band into her palm
she feels the edges bite
salt water and mascara stroke the canvas of her face
a blurred painting in a gallery
that she doesn’t seem to place

the weather vane creaking to her right, suggests, persuades, directs
the taxis drift behind her
a cortège of funeral guests
she takes one last look into herself, what she’s become
the penultimate rush of finality, here yet only half way home

didn’t we see her not half way home?
painted in waves where she lay finally alone
all i could see was the child i’d known
close enough yet only half way home

didn’t we see her not half way home?
painted in waves where she lay
(all i could see was the child i’d known)
she’s fading, she’s fading
(she’s close enough, close enough)
yet only half way home

half way home
half way home
half way home
yet only half way home
