  i knew that i'd get like this again, that's why i try to keep at bay
  be a 100 percent when i'm with you and then
  the perfect heart's length away
  the stickler is your plague, not one beat wrong
  you never promised me anything
  even set me down, warn me just how they fall
  i knew the odds were i'd never win and here i am
  
  it's a half life
  with you as my quarterback
  a daft life
  
  myself worth measured in text-back tempo
  it's been two days and eight minutes too slow
  there may well be others but i still like to pretend
  that i'm the one you really want to grow old with
  i've got a schedule to stick to, got a world to keep sweet
  it's so much to everyone all the time
  will you ever slow down? will i ever confess?
  the universe contracts to size
  
  it's a half life
  with you as my quarterback
  a daft life
  
  it's a half life
  with you as my quarterback
  a daft life
  
  oh, me
  oh, me
  oh, me
  oh, me daddy please
  
  you know you'll never be lonely
  no, you'll always be loved
  and maybe, you'll never need more than that
  of others sapless little loves
  what's to become of us?
  does it even register on your conscience?
  long for one last showdown from a box in a crowd
  air compress tight to explode
  i'm clenching my ticket to the only way out
  as you disappear in a puff of smoke
  
  its a half life
  with you as my quarterback
  a daft life
