Half Way Home 

My lips are sealed
Only the jealous lovers wonder now
What Jack told Jill right before 
Jack fell down and broke his crown

And you had angel blossom wings
So, you could rise above it all
I had angry songs to sing
And, writer’s blocks to break my falls

We could be 1/2 way home by now
We could be 1/2 way home I know
We could be anywhere but here, and now, and how?

I’m breakin’ waves
I’m breakin’ up rocks along an empty shore
I count the days hoping that you’ll be coming back for more

But you were hooked on demon’s breath
An angel in the devil’s lens
And I was on some heavy trip
Tryin’ to make it all make sense

And we could be 1/2 way home by now
We could be 1/2 way home I know
We could be anywhere but here, and now, and how? and why?

You think you’re fine
And suddenly all your rivers wash up dry
It gets so hard to try
With all the dead-end watchers standing by

But you had angel blossom wings
So, you could rise above it all
And I had hopeless songs to sing 
And writer’s blocks to break my falls

And we could be 1/2 way home by now
We could be 1/2 way there I know
We could be 1/2 way home by now
We could be anywhere but here, and now, and how? and why?

Why?
