Half Dead Lyrics
Half Dead - The Mountain Goats
Written by:John Darnielle
It was raining outside
So I cleaned house today
Spent half of the morning
Throwing old things away
Try not to get caught
Try to think like a machine
Focus in on the task
Try not to
Think about what it means
Can't get you
Out of my head
Lost without you
Half dead
Took my spot at the window
Looked at the road
Dots and dashes of traffic
Like a message in code
And whole boxes of memories
Wrapped up at the curb
I sang songs to myself
Didn't have any words
Can't get you
Out of my head
Lost without you
Half dead
Stole out to the backyard
Late last night
Pine trees frozen
In the silvery moonlight
Rising like giants from the cold earth
What are the years we gave each other
Ever gonna be worth
Can't get you
Out of my head
Lost without you
Half dead
