Half Life

Hot rubber on the asphalt, fire through the pines Half a cup of coffee and a pack of smokes to the Oklahoma line Thinking 'bout Grandpa, thinking 'bout home What the hell I'm gonna say? Why your baby ran away without even a phone call? I was caught in the moment, livin' a half life I'm only waitin' to come down Half a believer, heart of a doubter I only hope I make you proud Between here and there and everything I got Livin' the half life Dogs runnin' down the driveway, wind whistle in my ear Hoppin' out the truck to the smell of bacon grease and better years Mom, I'm still a cowboy, just lost my reigns While you and Dad were gettin' older, I wish I had gotten sober before he passed away I was caught in the moment, livin' a half life I'm only waitin' to come down Half a believer, heart of a doubter I only hope I make you proud Between here and there and everything I got Livin' the half life Runnin' out of options, fallin', heaven help me, hell won't stop me Runnin' out of prayers and IOUs I was caught in the moment, livin' a half life I'm only waitin' to come down Half a believer, heart of a doubter I only hope I make you proud Between here and there and everything I got And all that I lost, livin' the half life Livin' the half life Livin' the half life Livin' the half life
