Half Asleep — текст песни (ben folds five)

Half asleep, half a billboard, half a street, that`s my window,
All in all, If you wanna know, I`m half asleep
Old friends and strangers, they treat me like a little girl,
But not you dear, you were always here

But back in the black and white spotlight, and I smoke a pack past,
And you were sitting pretty then, just like you`re doing now,
I was so convinced, or so they say, I could have gone all the way,
Like everything else I did it halfway

Half asleep, that`s where the dreams and demons meet, say stop the laughter,
Dim the roar, this clown`s not funny anymore
Friends used to say that to me, treat me like a little girl,
But not you dear, you were always here

Like back when we tripped the light out of sight,
The band would play, I`d sing my heart out for drunken crowds,
It didn`t mean a thing, we were so overcome, I loved you so,
That it seemed like an hour ago

And when I`m down and out, I try to figure out,
What was it all about? was the spark always there?
I only know now, don`t wanna take another breath

Half asleep

No keep talking I`m still here, don`t let them take you away my dear
Someone said "He can`t hear you, he`s half asleep"

Half asleep
