Meter? I Just Met Her!
Half Hearted Hero Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The company I keep is killing me. I'm dying for change.
I need relief. You bring me comfort when I am tense,
But lately it's coming at your expense.
I'm so excited I've got you, but lately I've not known what to do.
I cam with a conscious curfew clear,
But now I'm coming down and why am I still here?
This question riddles my thoughts. I can't make up my mind.
I've been losing sleep.
I need to unwind and every breath of hers make me want you more.
It's easier with someone right next door.
This question riddles my thoughts.
I can't make up my mind. I've been losing sleep.
I need to unwind and every breath of hers make me miss you more.
It's easier with someone right next door.
The weight of this tension is burying me.
I'm gasping for air. I can barely breath.
I'm faced with a choice I didn't expect
And if I abstain I'll have nothing left.
South shore romances can be sin.
Late nights and blunt rides are wearing me thin.




In the end it all comes down to me growing up.
What should I pursue?
