Half Asleep
Ben Folds Five

Half asleep, half a Billboard, half a street

Well, that's my window

All in all, if you wanna know

I'm half asleep

Old friends and strangers

They treat me like a little girl

But not you, dear

You were always here

Like back in the black and white spotlight

And I'd smoked a packed house

And you were sitting pretty then

Just like you're doing now

I was so convinced or so they say

I could have gone all the way

Like everything else

I did it halfway

Half asleep, that's where the dreams

And demons meet

Say stop the laughter, dim the roar

This clown's not funny anymore

Friends used to say that to me

Treat me like a little girl

But not you, dear

You were always here

You're back when we tripped the light out of sight

The band would play

I'd sing my heart out for drunken crowds

It didn't mean a thing

We were so alone

I loved you so

Doesn't seem like

An hour ago

And when I'm down and out

I try to figure out

What was it all about?

Was the spark always there?

I only know now

I wanna take another breath

Half asleep, no keep talking, I'm still here

Don't let them take you away, my dear

Someone said, He can't hear you

He's half asleep

Half asleep
