[Verse] The clock on the wall is a heavy hand Pressing down on the kitchen floor. I’m tracing the grain of the wooden stand Wondering what I’m waiting for. The fridge hums a low and lonely tune In a house that’s forgot my name. Outside there’s a pale and dusty moon But in here it all feels the same. [Chorus] Half past three. Just the shadows and me. Nothing moves, nothing breathes. Half past three. Half past three. Just the shadows and me. Counting minutes till I’m free. Half past three. [Verse] I left the kettle to turn to cold Watching the steam just drift away. The stories I tell are getting old Thinking of things I didn't say. My shoes are lined up against the wall Ready to walk but nowhere to go. I listen for sounds out in the hall But it’s only the wind down below. [Chorus] Half past three. Just the shadows and me. Nothing moves, nothing breathes. Half past three. Half past three. Just the shadows and me. Counting minutes till I’m free. Half past three. [Bridge] The daylight is a thousand miles away. The silence is a price I have to pay. I’m turning off the lights one by one Until the long night is finally done. [Chorus] Half past three. Just the shadows and me. Nothing moves, nothing breathes. Half past three. Half past three. Just the shadows and me. Counting minutes till I’m free. Half past three. [Outro]
