Halfway Gone

As many of you know, my internal jukebox is almost entirely focused on matters of the heart. But today, when I started hearing the chorus to Halfway Gone, I knew it had to be driven by something else in my life.

Reading these lyrics, I realized it was the political world I inhabit during the day that had inspired the selection:

Talk, talk is cheap

Give me a word you can keep

Cause I'm halfway gone and I'm on my way

And I'm feelin, feelin feelin this way...
