Half of My Heart
Song lyrics, Battle Studies (2009)
Fonte: John Mayer - Battle Studies
Contexto: I was born in the arms of imaginary friends,
Free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been.
Then you come crashing in, like the realest thing,
Trying my best to understand all that your love can bring.Oh half of my heart's got a grip on the situation;
Half of my heart takes time.
Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
That I can't keep loving you (can't keep loving you)
Oh, with half of my heart.

“Everybody is a stranger, but that's the danger in going my own way.”

“It was so frightening at the time to be seventeen and have heart monitors hooked up to you. That was the moment the songwriter in me was born. I discovered a whole other side of me. I came home that night and started writing lyrics. I discovered it all at once: It was like opening up a lockbox, and inside was a depth that I didn't even know I had as a person, or a writer — incredible creativity and vision and neurosis, complete neurosis. They all go together in a package.”

“Gravity is working against me,
And gravity wants to bring me down.Oh, twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could.
It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees.”

Gravity
Song lyrics, Continuum (2006)

“I am driving up '85 in the
Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon,
Just stuck inside the gloom.
4 more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
And leave it all behind.Because I wonder sometimes
About the outcome
Of a still verdictless life.”

“It wasn’t as direct as me saying “I now make the choice to bring the paparazzi into my life.” I really said, “I now make the choice to sleep with Jessica Simpson.” That was stronger than my desire to stay out of the paparazzi’s eye.”

“If I had done things differently, I'd probably have the paparazzi waiting around for me. At the studio where I've been recording, Jessica Simpson is working there, too. The paparazzi are outside waiting for her to come out. That's the result of her decisions. My decisions have led me to the point that when I walk out in front of the paparazzi, I'm considered a waste of film.”

Esquire magazine (November 1, 2004)

“Something about the way your hair falls in your face
I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase
You tell me where to go and
Though I might leave to find it,
I'll never let your head hit the bed
Without my hand behind it.And if you want love,
We'll make it.
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets.
Take all your big plans
And break them,
This is bound to be a while.”

Heartbreak Warfare
Song lyrics, Battle Studies (2009)

“Have no fear for giving in,
Have no fear for giving over.
You'd better know that in the end
It's better to say too much
Than never say what you need to say again.Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken,
Even as the eyes are closing,
Do it with a heart wide open.”

“"Welcome to the real world", she said to me
Condescendingly.
Take a seat,
Take your life
Plot it out in black and white.
Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings
And the drama queens.
I'd like to think the best of me
Is still hiding
Up my sleeve.They love to tell you:
Stay inside the lines,
But something's better
On the other side.”
