Half Empty

Verse 1
Carried an umbrella
in the sunshine
Coffee at the diner
with this girl of mine
A perky cup of pathos
for her poet
She?s suffering
you wouldn?t know it.

But, all I see are clouds
So overcast and hazy
And all I see is risk
Wish I weren?t so crazy
Call the waitress over
for a refill
She?s pouring, pouring,
but I?m still

Chorus
Half empty
Half hearted
Half a mind to disregard it
Half witted
Only half baked
But, if you?ll meet me halfway
I wanna be half full
I wanna be half full

Verse 2
She hung a spoon from her nose
And stole a flower from the vase
She thread it through my lapel
She strung the pearls back on my face
Threw my umbrella in the trash can
And flushed the blue pills
But the second she is gone
I?m still?

Chorus

Bridge
And its ironic that she comforts me
From her wheelchair
But she dispenses what I need
And she is, she?s always there

Chorus (Modified)
Half empty
Half hearted
I?m of a mind to disregard it
Half witted
Only half baked
She always meets me halfway

And I can be half full
I know I will be half full
I wanna be half full
I know I will be
