Lyrics Half the World - Arcane Roots

Half the World

Watch the moment as it fades
And tell yourself it ain’t like dying
Have you got something for the taste?
Because the chemicals are kicking in
So bring the morning if it comes
For I have given up on timing
And you know I couldn’t say it
But I was hoping I would drown
I was hoping I would drown
Half the world is keeping me apart
I know
A symphony to keep you in the dark
Enough
Now I’ve been moving oceans in your sleep
And yet my giving in, is giving in
And I left a note for you to read
To try to take it back
But I was hoping I would drown
Half the world is keeping me apart
I know
A symphony to keep you in the dark
Enough
As we fade
Never knowing if we’ll dream about it
And as we fall
Hoping we had said enough to begin
We are the same
All alone we’ll face our doubts in the end
But keep your hands upon the wheel
Darling, I’m afraid
(Be yourself, when you’re full of doubt)
Hold on to the reins
(Be yourself, and when it’s falling down)
Listen to the rain
(Be yourself, when you’re calling out)
Know that we’re the same
So keep your hands upon the wheel
