Half-Life
By Tom Baker © 2008

It may seem like dereliction
And quite a contradiction
But it is my conviction
That you’re better off this way

In all of this confusion
You need a life transfusion
I know the solution
And there’s nothing else to say

Too many promises break
I’ve given more than you should take

Just give up on me now…

Love is radiation
With half-life degradation
And some of my frustration
Is that it will never go away

But I’ve become a tumor
And cutting me off sooner
While side effects may linger
You still can walk away

Too many lies are told
This story’s getting old

Just give up on me now…

Too many promises break
I’ve given more than you should take

Just give up on me now…
