Half Life Lyrics

I love this song. It's so sweet. I was confused on those two parts with ??? too. I just have two corrections for you.

I don't think it's "I knew the odds were right never when, and here i am..." but actually "I knew the odds were I'd never win, yet here i am..."

I think it's "well there may well be others but i still like to pretend "
not "Well there may well be a best, but I still like to pretend"

I think it's about a relationship in which she is more invested than the guy. She knows he sees other women too and she knows that he doesn't value the relationship the same way she does yet she can't bring herself to end it for her own good. I love the line "my self worth's measured in text back tempo." It's so true about relationships today. Waiting for a text back from someone you like can be agonizing to wait for. Another good one by Imogen.

thanks for the help :) this song has been on repeat for about 2 days straight haha :) xoxox
