Singing show tunes in new York city Trying to make a buck so I can eat I don't even know why I even try My Guitars hanging off my neck I'm playing the best way I know You pass by on your way to work But don't sit there like you know Like you're better than me Writing words on a half used flyer Wet from the rain, from tears dropping off my face Lyrics I don't know the meaning off Broken phrases that make no sense yo anyone but me I tried to go off and live my dream But now I'm living half alive Trying my best to get by And the little I got isn't quite enough

Half-Alive
Singing show tunes in new York city Trying to make a buck so I can eat I don't even know why I even try My Guitars hanging off my neck I'm playing the best way I know You pass by on your way to work But don't sit there like you know Like you're better than me Writing words on a half used flyer Wet from the rain, from tears dropping off my face Lyrics I don't know the meaning off Broken phrases that make no sense yo anyone but me I tried to go off and live my dream But now I'm living half alive Trying my best to get by And the little I got isn't quite enough
