Before I Gave Up

Get Young

half a life thinking
pull out that book, put it back
i'm borderline sinking—stoned, something like that..
spent half a life drinking
a young man would want it back
a mastermind seeks it
overwhelmed, are we overwhelmed at last?

half a life dreaming
was it wasted or will we crash?
a reconciled setlist—oversold, we were typical at best
rest for the wicked, not one thinks they're next
but can't be sure
terrified guess:
are we going to hell? have we been to hell and back?
brace for the sunny day
then waste it stumbling home
where no floor will have a face
half a life taken
half a life given away

half a life thinking
recalling a reckless past
approaching the spider
underwhelmed, are we overwhelmed at last?
death for the restless, not one knows they're next
but can't be sure
terrified guest,
are you heaven sent? have you been to hell and back?
brace for the sunny day
then waste it stumbling home
where no floor will have a face
half a life taken
half a life given
half a life taken
half a life given
half a life taken away
