Half Measures Lyrics by Elysian Fields

What The Thunder Said

2024

Show me a sign, show me a sign, please
They’re all around you
You just don’t like what you see
Half measures, half measures, half measures
I can’t go, I can’t go faster

Like when you wake for no reason in the pitch of night
Look out the window, city sleeping
Guess ’bout an hour till light
Half measures, half measures, half measures
I can’t go, I can’t go faster

A string of lights dimly flicker on a lone balcony
The air is chilly and heavy
And you’re hit by melancholy
Half measures, half measures, half measures
I can’t go, I can’t go faster

What is it about this time of yеar
That feels so much tougher
Christmas is in the air
But I’ve much lеss to offer
I must be awful

Some kind of fever dream
Best become one with the bed
What’s been lost at the bottom
Is churning up and clouding your head
Half measures, half measures, half measures
I can’t go, I can’t go faster

Pick up the line, pick up the line, please
Or just resign, shut your eyes
Because there’s nothing to see
Half measures, half measures, half measures
I can’t go, I can’t go faster
I can’t go, I can’t go faster
I can’t go, I can’t go faster
