Half Hearted

Corroded and open wide

When I realized

That everyone who's ever hurt me will be old someday

Oh womanlike

I take the pieces build the life

But everyone who's ever tried will still be old someday

Looking harder, growing older

When it's gone how do you hold it

Cried in my first car alone when I sold it

To a man from a town that I'll never go to

How I don't want to love and don't want to stop loving you

Half-hearted when both things are true

I know you'll be old someday

I want someone to teach me everything I know

I want a big bed

I want to pay my friends

But the pieces will fall where they do where they don't

And everyone who's ever loved will sometimes sleep alone

Looking harder, mulling over

All the things I wish I'd told you

Crying when I'm not supposed to

Like it'll make what's broken new

How I do and don't want to

Half-hearted when both things are true I know we'll be old someday
