We walk through the campus at night
Hear the absence in the air
I love that you’re someone who’s just as reserved
Who can share this kind of silence

Your drive for adrenaline, something new to do
Be my reason, I’ll be your fuel
We’ll be inseparable, do til we die
They’ll never know what hit them

We talk of our lives from before
How something was never quite there
Nothing else mattered like the thought of the one
Who could fit in our arms like no one

You reach for my neck, put your cheek up to mine
I could breathe in your breathing for the rest of time
Pull you close to my chest, feel our heartbeats align
No more words, no more lies, just the look in your eyes

And I wake from my dream and continue to walk
Through the campus at night with nobody who knows without talk

I know that we might never meet
You might not even exist
Feel it’s crazy for me to hope
For something I’ve never known

But so what if that makes me crazy
Is it crazy to have a reason?
If you’re out there, I know that we’ll meet
I’ll bet my life on a dream

So whenever I walk at half past two
I’ll continue to dream of a silence that says

Whenever I walk at half past two
I’ll continue to dream of somebody who knows without talk

Half Past Two

Lyrics:

You can be wise at 16 years old
I was wise at 16 years old
Sit in my room, ponder the world
Know that there’s nothing real to hold

Playing Watts, not a guru, but it’s still a fun game
I remember a time before I felt this way
Seek the truth, how to live, need to know, need to know
Didn’t know I’d never know

Now I’m Socrates, but better, cause I know I’m a hypocrite
Now I’m Camus, but better, cause I know when to rest
Now I’m Nagel, but better, cause I know that a laugh
Is as romantically defiant as you can get

Challenge what you want but you can’t tear me down
You can’t undermine a belief of no ground
And neither could I, believe me, I tried

So here I fall, no solution, but it’s still a fun game
Glad I made it through the time before I felt this way
Can’t cut through this illusion, but if you hold me close
We can dance to this rhythm, keep the pulse, keep the pulse

Now we’re Socrates, but better, cause we know when to lie
Now we’re Camus, but better, cause we know when to fold
Now we’re Nagel, but better, cause we know the Absurd
Is meant to be bold cause we said so

So watcha gonna do, now you’ve seen through my veil
Now that we understand that there’s no holy grail
Will you buckle, will you break, or will you take my hand
So we can walk, and laugh, and dance in ways our doubt can’t understand

Watcha gonna do, now you’ve seen through my veil
Now that we understand that there’s no holy grail
Will you buckle, will you break, or will you take my hand
So we can walk, and laugh, and dance in ways our doubt can’t understand
