[Intro] Thought I'd be done Thought I'd be over you by now [Verse 1] The day you left I was glowing hot Dangerous levels, I lost the plot Couldn't be near me, couldn't come close I was the element with the highest dose They say give it time, let the decay run Let the unstable become undone But nobody told me the half of it That half of infinity is infinite [Chorus] You're my half-life Every year I'm half of what I was Half the wreck, half the heat Half the reasons my heart still beats But never zero, never clean Never free of what you mean I'm halving and halving and halving again But the math doesn't let me reach the end You're my half-life And I'll never be done [Verse 2] Three years gone and the counter's slow Just a click now where there used to be a glow I can hold a conversation, hold a job, hold a drink I can go a whole hour and not lose my mind But then a song comes on or I smell your perfume And the needle jumps in the silent room Still contaminated, still not clear Still measuring you in the atmosphere [Chorus] You're my half-life Every year I'm half of what I was Half the wreck, half the heat Half the reasons my heart still beats But never zero, never clean Never free of what you mean I'm halving and halving and halving again But the math doesn't let me reach the end You're my half-life And I'll never be done [Bridge] They talk about closure like it's a place you arrive Like grief is a road and you reach the other side But that's not how decay works That's not how it ends You don't hit zero You just round down and pretend I'll carry traces of you into the ground Background radiation no one else can hear the sound You're in my bones now, in the marrow, in the cells A contamination that time can't quite expel [Chorus] You're my half-life Every year I'm less of what I was Less the wreck, less the heat Less the reasons my heart still beats But never zero, never clean Never free of what you mean I'm approaching the axis but I won't cross the line Asymptotic to you for the rest of my time You're my half-life And I'll never be done [Outro] Still you... Always you And I'll never be done [End] ©Quantum Soul 2026 All rights reserved
