Half Life
Livingston Lyrics

It's just genetic, it's written in your DNA
Your predisposition to certain traits and behaviors is inherent and cannot be changed.

It's symptomatic, at least that's what the doctors say
The symptoms you experience are indications of a deeper underlying condition, as diagnosed by medical professionals.

It's in your nature finding darkness in the brightest day
You have a tendency to focus on negativity even in the most positive situations.

But here we are
Despite these inherent tendencies, we are together in the present moment.

Cause you were made from stars to live a life you'd never love
Your existence and purpose are derived from cosmic origins, but you are not truly content with the life you are living.

So if this is the last night, and your feeling hollow
If this is our final evening together, and you are feeling empty and devoid of emotions.

I'll give you my half life so you'll see tomorrow
I will share my own vitality and energy with you to ensure you have a future.

There isn't anywhere that I would follow
I am willing to accompany you in any direction or journey, without any limitations or reservations.

I'm chasing your last light to wherever I go
I am actively pursuing the remnants of your positivity and brightness, no matter where life takes me.

Oh our elements change into chemical traces
The fundamental aspects of our beings transform into intangible imprints left behind in the form of chemical reactions.

Reactions that they'll never know
These reactions and changes remain hidden from others, unbeknownst to them.

You know I said it, I'd never let you fade away
I promised that I would always ensure you remain present and not fade into obscurity.

It's energetic, the bond was never meant to break
Our connection is full of vibrant energy and was never intended to be severed or fractured.

You were made from scars to live a life you'd rise above
Your experiences of pain and struggles are what have shaped you, and you have the capacity to overcome and transcend them.

If this is the last time that we'll never borrow
If this is our final opportunity to take something from each other without the expectation of returning it.

If this the last time that we'll ever borrow
If this is our final occasion to borrow from one another.

So if this is the last
Therefore, if this is the end.

Time
The passing moments and existence.

I'll give you my half life so you'll see tomorrow
I will sacrifice half of my own existence and vitality to ensure you have a future.

There isn't any
There are no restrictions or limitations.

Where
To any place or destination.

I'm chasing your last light to wherever I go
I am actively pursuing the remaining glimmers of your positivity and brightness, regardless of where my personal journey leads me.

Oh our elements change into chemical traces
The elemental components of our beings transform into imprints left behind in the form of chemical reactions.

Reactions that they'll never know
These reactions and changes remain concealed and unbeknownst to others.

If this is the last time that we'll ever borrow
If this is our final opportunity to take something from one another without the expectation of returning it.

I'll give you my half life so you'll see tomorrow
I will sacrifice half of my own existence and vitality to ensure you have a future.

If this is the last time that we ever borrow
If this is the final occasion for us to take something from each other without the expectation of returning it.

I'll give you my half life so you'll see tomorrow
I will sacrifice half of my own existence and vitality to ensure you have a future.
