    Hes acctually singing about his struggle to let go of the video game half life. It's a sad story.

    This song reminds me of my brother who died 3 years ago. One of his favorite song. He asked me what the meaning of half life was for me, and I didn't have a answer. I didn't answer because I know what he meant from his past experiences with my parents. I love you very much, I appreciate everything you do for me and for our family.

    Thanks, Jonah_girl! This song is so beautiful, because it spins between falling in love again, or leaving someone forever. Without love, or release, we become trapped in time, in a place separated from the physical world, where we are disconnected, and alone. Without closure, we are condemned to "half-life," a state which is neither alive, nor dead.

    For the longest time I grew up listening to this song on a pirated site because I could never get enough of this song after watching What a Girl Wants. Now all i have to do is push play again... no locked sites anymore. Just high definition sound through 5.1 surround.

    I'm awake in the afternoon
    I fell asleep in the living room
    And it's one of those moments
    When everything is so clear
    Before the truth goes back into hiding
    I want to decide 'cause it's worth deciding
    To work on finding something more than this fear
    It takes so much out of me to pretend
    Tell me now, tell me how to make amends
    Maybe, I need to see the daylight
    To leave behind the half-life
    Don't you see I'm breaking down
    Lately, something here don't feel right
    This is just a half-life
    Is there really no escape?
    No escape from time
    Of any kind
    I keep trying to understand
    This thing and that thing, my fellow man
    I guess I'll let you know
    When I figure it out
    But I don't mind a few mysteries
    They can stay that way it's fine by me
    And you are another mystery I am missing
    It takes so much out of me to pretend
    Maybe, I need to see the daylight
    To leave behind the half-life
    Don't you see I'm breaking down
    Lately, something here don't feel right
    This is just a half-life
    Is there really no escape?
    No escape from time
    Of any kind
    Come on lets fall in love [Repeat: x3]
    Again
    Cause lately something here don't feel right
    This is just a half-life,
    Without you I am breaking down
    Wake me, let me see the daylight
    Save me from this half-life
    Let's you and I escape
    Escape from time
    Come on lets fall in love [Repeat: x3]
    Again

    Half Life
    Übersetzung
    Duncan Sheik
    Am Nachmittag bin ich wach
    Ich schlafe im Wohnzimmer ein
    Und es ist einer von diesen Momenten
    In denen alles klar ist.
    Bevor sich die Wahrheit wieder versteckt
    Will ich entscheiden, denn das ist eine Entscheidung wert
    Daran zu arbeiten, mehr als diese Angst zu finden.
    Es verlangt so viel von mir ab, es zu verbergen
    Sag mir, sag mir wie man etwas verbessern kann.
    Vielleicht muss ich das Tageslicht sehen
    Dieses halbherzige Leben hinter mir lassen
    Siehst du denn nicht wie ich zusammenbreche.
    Oh, seit kurzem stimmt etwas nicht
    Das ist nur ein halbherziges Leben
    Gibt es wirklich keinen Ausweg?
    Keine Flucht vor der Zeit
    Egal auf welche Art.
    Ich versuche weiter es zu verstehen
    Diese Sache und jene Sache, mein Gefährte
    Ich denke, ich werde es dich wissen lassen
    Wenn ich es geschafft habe.
    Und ich habe nichts gegen ein paar Geheimnisse
    Sie können bleiben, damit kann ich leben
    Aber du bist ein weiteres Geheimnis, das ich vermisse.
    Es ist zu viel verlangt, so zu tun, als wäre nichts.
    Vielleicht muss ich das Tageslicht sehen
    Dieses halbherzige Leben hinter mir lassen
    Siehst du denn nicht wie ich zusammenbreche.
    Seit kurzem stimmt irgendetwas nicht
    Das ist nur ein halbherziges Leben
    Gibt es wirklich keinen Ausweg?
    Keine Flucht vor der Zeit
    Egal auf welche Art.
    Komm schon, lass uns verlieben
    Komm schon, lass uns verlieben
    Komm schon, lass uns verlieben
    Wieder.
    Denn seit kurzem stimmt etwas nicht
    Das ist nur ein halbherziges Leben
    Ohne dich breche ich zusammen.
    Oh, weck mich auf, ich will das Tageslicht sehen
    Beschütze mich vor diesem halbherzigen Leben
    Lass uns von hier flüchten
    Flüchten, vor der Zeit.
    Komm schon, lass uns verlieben
    Komm schon, lass uns verlieben
    Komm schon, lass uns verlieben
    Wieder.

    I was hoping that this was a song about Half Life the game series, but oh well. This is still a nice song!
