[Verse 1]
Congratulations: you’ve made it this far
Not much of a future the way that things are
No job, no money, and worse of all, no plan

Don’t have much to speak of, not even a car
I used to have to come and pick you up after closing time at the bar
I thought by now you would’ve had enough, living life like Peter Pan

[Chorus]
Because you’re halfway to nowhere
And you’re running out of time

[Verse 2]
I’m going to be frank with you ‘cause if I don’t who will
Since I left you’ve spent a lot of time going farther down that hill
I won’t be there to catch you and it’s not that I don’t care Because you’re halfway to nowhere And you’re running out of time

[Chorus]
Because you’re halfway to nowhere
And you’re running out of time

[Outro]
I wish we could be closer but you know that I don’t dare
Because you’re halfway to nowhere
And you’re running out of time
