So there are many here among us
Who have lost more than they've gained
Amassing materials
Deserting the ethereal plain
It's like a smoke to calm the nerves
Like a drink to push the hurt down
Sadness runnin' the world and over everything
But I believe in something
Like I believe in you
While I can't touch it, taste it, see it
Times like this, really, any damn thing will do
Halfway home
Halfway home
Halfway home
So your head is filled with questions
And the future's hard to see
They're calling you one way
And the heartache's to set you free
It's that same old tired song
That keeps stringing us along, darlin'
Dreamin' up an exit but
The melody repeats and repeats and repeats and repeats
While it feels like nothin'
Loose the chains that bind
Let your spirit shake the dead weight
Run fast as you can toward some goddamned peace of mind
Halfway home
Halfway home
Halfway home
You're hungover and strung out and hooked on some
Cosmic line
So dear Mother Nature could eat you alive
Is there a hopeless romantic that somewhere's still human kind
It's a wonder, my love, that you ever survive
You have nothing more to give
You've found nothing in return
That same old song
The saddest one you've ever heard
But I believe in something
I believe in you
And I promise, it gets better, my friend
And sure, they're just words, but
Any damn thing will do
Halfway home
Halfway home
Halfway home
(Any damn thing will do)
Halfway home
Halfway home
(Any damn thing will do)
Halfway home
Halfway home
(Any damn thing, any damn thing will do)
Halfway home (Any damn thing will do)
