Half-Light
Music by Some Swords
Lyrics by Jeremy Quillo
Hard luck, fading into half light
A heart stuck, fading with the last tick before midnight
You left your window
Cracked open just enough
The last days of June
Climb into my room
Hard luck, I regret my vessel
Never made it there last year
These waters, they were never
Quite this clear… last year
This current, so unkind to keep me here
Last year
These waters, they were never
Quite this clear
Never quite this clear
Never quite this
Hard luck, fading pages
Falling from my hand
Only to land, burning,
On the sand
I left my window cracked open
Just enough
The last days of you
Climb into my...
So I’m setting out for the other side,
For the yellow sky
It’s miles away
I will fade to half-light,
Half-light, half-light
Setting out through the ice storm
Survive another year
One end of a kite string
Frozen into fear
It’s setting in, so I’m
Setting out for the other side
For the yellow sky
It’s miles away
So I will fade to half-light, Half-light, half-light
