There is no demo for this song.

Liner Notes

Already half way, this one feels even faster than the previous one gotta up my commenting game.

Lyrics

I am half a man And half nothing else And I have spent all this time Trying to, become whole

But I haven't ever been that way No I was always stuck at halfway And I keep running out of things to say Cause there isn't a point I'm making

Would you rather lose the right or left half of your brain? Maybe you'd like to maintain half of both departments I don't get these luxuries I am sick of hypotheticals Give me something prophetical I need that kind of thing

I got something to lose and something to gain But would I rather lose something I know Than gain something I don't And end up getting hurt By a power I don't understand And end up getting hurt By burning my new left hand

I am half a man And half nothing else And I have spent all this time Trying to, become whole

But I haven't ever been that way No I was always stuck at halfway And I keep running out of things to say Cause there isn't a point I'm making

Yeah I don't know what's next I don't know how the song will end Because I couldn't write the end I had to stop... halfway

Cool take on the prompt. I wasn't sure what you meant by "But I haven't ever been that way No I was always stuck at halfway" Sounds contradicting but maybe it's just me.

The feeling of a partial identity is something that most listeners could relate to. I like the apologetic and bemused tone as a way to emphasize how much is unknown.
