Life's Half

(Verse) Clock's tickin', youth's slippin', in the mirror peekin', Life’s halfway beacon, but my spirit’s still seekin’. Quick sand, last stand, in my hand what’s left? Dreams fade, shades played, feel the heart’s theft. Echoes in halls, past calls, grey streaks now brawl, Missed shots, thought plots, against time’s cruel wall. Midlife’s quest, chest compressed, in doubt’s tight vest, Empty glance, missed chance, in silence confessed. (Chorus) Half-done tale, scale frail, in life’s gale we sail, Shadows cast, vast past, in twilight we prevail. Fleeting beats, incomplete streets, seeking more heats, Holding tight, fight the night, until the heart meets. (Verse) Paths bent, years spent, where has the fervor went? Life’s lease, peace crease, but still not content. Rewind, mind grind, looking for what’s not found, Scattered pieces, life ceases, in whispers resound. (Pre-Chorus) Here’s to uncharted lanes, future’s fresh gains, Not just numbers, life’s remains, let’s break these chains. Beyond the gloom, room to bloom, defeat the tomb, Craft new tales, set sails, let hope resume. (Chorus) (Chorus) (END)
