Lyrics
0:08Am I the half of half-and-half
0:11Or am I the half that's whole
0:14I've got to be one with all my halves
0:17It's my worthy earthly goal
0:20It's my worthy earthly goal
0:23It's my worthy earthly goal
0:26Are you the heavy half
0:36The lighter me
0:38Are you the ready parked
0:41The lighter me
0:45Chorus:
0:46When I came apart
0:48I wasn't made of sand
0:50When you fell apart
0:54Clay crumbled in my hands
0:57Long way a life load
1:03Statues and haloes
1:10Am I the half of half-and-half
1:11Or am I the half that's whole
1:15Am I the half that's whole
1:19Am I the half that's whole
1:28Are you the wrongful half
1:31The rightful me
1:34Are you the mongol half
1:37Of the cerebral me
1:39(chorus x2)
2:35If we exercise just some control
2:41When we exercise our sum control
2:48Oh isn't it nice
2:51When your heart is made out of ice
2:54(x2)
3:01Are you the heavy half
3:06The lighter me
3:08Are you the ready parked
3:13That has entered me
3:19Am I the "tial" in po-ten-tial
3:21Or am I the "suc" in "cess"
3:25Bruise and delusion
3:26Deluge me
3:28Am I the more or less (3x)
3:36When I came apart
3:39I wasn't made of sand
3:42When you fell apart
3:45Clay crumbled in my hands
3:48When I came apart
3:51I wasn't made of sand
3:54When I was the Cain
3:57You were the Abel
4:00When I came apart
4:03Clay crumbled in my hands
Am I the half of half-and-half Or am I the half that's whole I've got to be one with all my halves It's my worthy earthly goal It's my worthy earthly goal It's my worthy earthly goal Are you the heavy half The lighter me Are you the ready parked The lighter me Chorus: When I came apart I wasn't made of sand When you fell apart Clay crumbled in my hands Long way a life load Statues and haloes Am I the half of half-and-half Or am I the half that's whole Am I the half that's whole Am I the half that's whole Are you the wrongful half The rightful me Are you the mongol half Of the cerebral me (chorus x2) If we exercise just some control When we exercise our sum control Oh isn't it nice When your heart is made out of ice (x2) Are you the heavy half The lighter me Are you the ready parked That has entered me Am I the "tial" in po-ten-tial Or am I the "suc" in "cess" Bruise and delusion Deluge me Am I the more or less (3x) When I came apart I wasn't made of sand When you fell apart Clay crumbled in my hands When I came apart I wasn't made of sand When I was the Cain You were the Abel When I came apart Clay crumbled in my hands
