Half the Time

There's a crow flyin' down from over the hill

Cracked paint on my window sill

Each morning broke provides a girl

Forget my evening feeling world

When day gets dark, it seeps into my skin

And I recall the spark that kept me sane

Can't talk to you, it's plain

Won't start to name my pain

Or forget I don't know why

You tugged the corner of my eye

Movin' up the neck of my guitar

I turn the lamp off, I see where you are

Your one light slowly fading in my mind

The furthest from my head

Half the time

Simple point too bright to leave the sky

You're dissolving in my eye, in my eye

My closed eye

Half the time

Mountain Dew and Marlboro while I stew over all I owe

My eyes set wet against the breeze

Guide the sun into the trees

Where squirrels are holding acorns in their teeth

I can't see into why I made you leave

Your one light slowly fading in my mind

The furthest from my head

Half the time

A simple point revolving in my sky

You're dissolving in my eye
