Lyrics

HALF OF IT

This table, it used to sit three
Tiny hands holding cutlery
Oh, how she’s growing so fast
I’m missing half of it

How can I begin to unwind
This tangled up mess in my mind?
Oh, what shall I do with my time,
Now you’ve taken half of it?

Every night when she’s asleep
I pray I’ve done my best
Count my blessings on one hand
To know she’s the one
Knowing that she’s the one
Knowing that she’s the one
Makes me grateful for this mess

Do you feel her breaking in two?
Divided between me and you
Tell me, when did love leave the room?
When did we run out of it?

Unraveling everything thread
The spiteful and harsh words we spit
Is he bringing warmth to your bed?
I want no part of it

Every night when she’s asleep
I pray I’ve done my best
Count my blessings on one hand
To know she’s the one
Knowing that she’s the one
Knowing that she’s the one
Makes me grateful for this mess

Your world seems so shiny and new
While I’m left to scraps in this room
If given the chance to choose
I’d walk away from you

I try to let go of the fight
But somehow it doesn’t sit right
‘Cause you gave it all up and I’m left with half of it
