lyrics

(half a second)

You looked over and it was nothing, it was weather
A half second where your face forgot to be arranged
And I have been living in that half second since Thursday
Like a person who has moved into a doorway

And I know what I saw
And I know I am the only witness
And I know what that makes me

Half a second, half a second
That is the entire evidence I have
Half a second, half a second
And I have built a whole religion on it

(mm, half a second)
(mm, that is all it was)

You do not know that you did it, which is the worst part
There is no one to accuse and nothing to forgive

Half a second, half a second
That is the entire evidence I have
Half a second, half a second
And I have built a whole religion on it

Half a second, half a second
And I have built a whole religion on it

(mm, that is all it was)
