I'm not one to tell you That you shouldn't be here Voices echo the hallway As I'm climbing the stairs Reflection through ages Of a worn out town Did I do enough Is my family proud? I was tripping down Every avenue That we used to run Shattering mirrors Do it all for the Sake of love All the bad habits That took forever to give up Feels like I've wasted half of my life Wasted half of my life Now I'm coming alive Somebody be on my side I wasted half of my life Second chances I give To everyone but myself Time to move the furniture Start dusting the shelves There's secrets in the cupboards That I don't want them to see Took a glance at the future Freedom lives in me I was crawling down Every boulevard that I used to own Years of denial All the weeds have overgrown Thousands of ways it broke me How I should have known Feels like I've wasted half of my life Wasted half of my life Now I'm coming alive Somebody be on my side I wasted half of my life I feel a little bit alone In life sometimes But thank God for my family How can I be so blind To the blessings overflowing All this truth out in the open All his blessings overflowing All this truth out in the open (In the open) Wasted half of my life Now I'm coming alive Wasted half of my life Now I'm finally alive
