Half Alive Lyrics by Secrets

Everything That Got Us Here

2015

[Verse 1: Richard Rogers & Wade Walters]
I always heard rumors about "behind the scenes"
I found out that they're true, though vicious and obscene
I'm giving out false handshakes until my wrists break
Each interaction lacks any bit of passion, what a shame
I've been deceived by the ones that I held in such high acclaim
"It is what it is," I'm told, "it's part for the course to fit their mold"
"Blend in, blend in to the mess, it's better to fit in"
They scream, "Give in, give in
Give up what's left of your innocence"

[Chorus: Richard Rogers; both]
Ring me out to dry
Nothing left inside 'cause my passion left me half alive
Have I lost the fight?
Was it meant to be or should I let this die?
I'm barely hanging on
With every twist, this rings me out to dry
Should I let this die?

[Verse 2: Richard Rogers]
I'm lost again, should I blame myself?
What once was mine belongs to someone else
It's fine, it's fine, I think I'll be alright
Just ring me out to dry 'til there's nothing inside

[Refrain: Richard Rogers; both]
I've lost all that I have left to lose to you
My passion's now past-tense, but I just can't move past it

[Chorus: Richard Rogers; both]
Ring me out to dry
Nothing left inside 'cause my passion left me half alive
Have I lost the fight?
Was it meant to be or should I let this die?
I'm barely hanging on
With every twist, this rings me out to dry
Should I let this die?

[Bridge: Richard Rogers]
Took it in my own hands, made this a mission
Warned before, but didn't listen
A weak attempt, a failed transmission
Should it die or should I finish?
Took it in my own hands, made this a mission
Warned before, but didn't listen
A weak attempt, a failed transmission
Should it die or should I finish?

[Chorus: Richard Rogers; both]
Ring me out to dry
Nothing left inside 'cause my passion left me half alive
Have I lost the fight?
Was it meant to be or should I let this die?
I'm barely hanging on
With every twist, this rings me out to dry
Should I let this die?
With every twist, this rings me out to dry
Should I let this die?
