I'm feelin' scared and lonely
Thinkin' I won't be forgiven
I hear my momma callin' and I start to question livin'
She said the door is always open
You just need to listen
You can turn it all around and just stop your wishin'

She said
She said
She said

Everybody gets a last chance
A fresh start
A new heart
Baby
If you wanna get on my train
You can hop on right now
Baby
Everybody gets a last chance
A fresh start
A new heart
Baby
If you wanna get on my train
You can hop on right now
Baby

My knees start shakin'
Heart is racin'
Got a cold sweat
Startin' to realize what I'm thinkin' might be true
Yeah
When you hit rock bottom
There's a ladder up to you
Yeah
But first you gotta listen when your mama tells you

She said
She said
She said

Everybody gets a last chance
A fresh start
A new heart
Baby
If you wanna get on my train
You can hop on right now
Baby
Everybody gets a last chance
A fresh start
A new heart
Baby
If you wanna get on my train
You can hop on right now
Baby
Everybody gets a last chance
A fresh start
A new heart
Baby
If you wanna get on my train
You can hop on right now
Baby
Everybody gets a last chance
A fresh start
A new heart
Baby
If you wanna get on my train
You can hop on right now
Baby

Never been so nervous
To open up my mouth
My heart was jumpin' hurdles
Thought I'd let you down

Never been so certain
As I am right now
The way you grabbed my waist
Pulled me close and spun me 'round

We were just a couple kids
Actin' like we were adults
Tryin' to act cool but the truth is
You always made me laugh when you told jokes
And now I'm finally bein' honest with you
It feels so good
And who knew?
So go and get the girls and the guys
And the beer on ice
And let's let the good times roll

Grew up in the same hometown
And never took a chance
But what goes around comes around
I guess that's how the story ends

We were just a couple kids
Actin' like we were adults
Tryin' to act cool but the truth is
You always made me laugh when you told jokes
And now I'm finally bein' honest with you
It feels so good
And who knew?
So go and get the girls and the guys
And the beer on ice
And let's let the good times roll
And now I'm finally bein' honest with you
It feels so good
And who knew?
So go and get the girls and the guys
And the beer on ice
And let's let the good times roll

And who knew? And who knew? And who knew?
And who knew? And who knew? And who knew?

Prompt

You say we’re good
I say we’re fine
Funny how those two
Don’t mean the same thing tonight

We still order for each other
Still know how the other takes it
Still laugh before the punchline lands
Still know when the other fakes it

But lately every little question
Gets answered with another one
Like we’re both trying to protect
Something neither wants undone

I don’t need perfect
I don’t need easy
I just need you
To say what you mean to me

Don’t love me halfway honest
Don’t give me almost true
If there’s something you’re not saying
I’d rather hear it from you

Don’t keep me close for comfort
Then pull away on cue
I can handle any answer
I just can’t guess what’s true

You still reach across the table
Like your hand remembers mine
Then you go quiet for a minute
And I pretend that it’s all fine

Maybe we got too good at knowing
How to leave the hard parts out
Maybe love can keep on working
But only if we talk it out

I don’t need perfect
I don’t need easy
I just need you
To say what you mean to me

Don’t love me halfway honest
Don’t give me almost true
If there’s something you’re not saying
I’d rather hear it from you

Don’t keep me close for comfort
Then pull away on cue
I can handle any answer
I just can’t guess what’s true

Say it wrong
Say it late
Say the thing
You think I’ll hate

I’d rather lose
A perfect night
Than keep pretending
We’re alright

Don’t love me halfway honest
Don’t give me almost true
If there’s something you’re not saying
I’d rather hear it from you

Don’t keep me close for comfort
Then pull away on cue
I can handle any answer
I just can’t guess what’s true

No halfway honest
No almost true
Just tell me where I stand
With you41:["$""$L51"null{"clip":{"status":"complete""title":"Halfway Honest""play_count":0"upvote_count":0"allow_comments":true"is_verified":false"id":"c0b47c45-1c77-405a-ad95-291380d8b366""entity_type":"song_schema""video_url":"""audio_url":"https://studio-apiprodsunocom/api/forbidden""media_urls":[{"url":"https://d2lwuy8qc234o3cloudfrontnet/1/clip/c0b47c45-1c77-405a-ad95-291380d8b366m4a""content_type":"m4a-opus""delivery":"progressive""encoding":"100"}]"image_url":"https://cdn2sunoai/image_c0b47c45-1c77-405a-ad95-291380d8b366jpeg""image_large_url":"https://cdn2sunoai/image_large_c0b47c45-1c77-405a-ad95-291380d8b366jpeg""major_model_version":"v55""model_name":"chirp-fenix""metadata":{"tags":"deep house 120 BPM warm male lead vocal low-register phrasing hypnotic four-on-the-floor kick shuffled percussion rounded sub bass soft minor seventh chords subtle dub stabs sparse synth pads clean spacious mix polished 2000s European club gradual arrangement shifts understated verses controlled hook melancholic sensuality breakdown pause tasteful instrumental breaks""prompt":"$52""type":"gen""duration":2368"refund_credits":false"stream":true"make_instrumental":false"control_sliders":{"style_weight":061}"can_remix":true"is_remix":false"priority":10"has_stem":false"uses_latest_model":false"model_badges":{"songcard":{"display_name":"V55""light":{"text_color":"A3A3A3"}"dark":{"text_color":"A3A3A3"}}"songrow":{"display_name":"V55""light":{"text_color":"A3A3A3"}"dark":{"text_color":"A3A3A3"}}}"image_config":{"use_image_config_template":true"id":"scribbles""default_cover_style":"brand_refresh"}"is_mumble":false}"is_liked":false"user_id":"8910b987-5626-41da-bd52-799bb4207013""display_name":"heworx""handle":"heworx""is_handle_updated":true"avatar_image_url":"https://cdn2sunoai/4ce45482-fba4-4eb1-b1a7-9e1ecb546663jpeg""is_trashed":false"is_hidden":false"created_at":"2026-08-15T04:34:44393Z""is_public":false"is_persona_root":false"is_following_creator":false"albums":[]"ownership":{"ownership_reason":"subscribed"}"explicit":false"comment_count":0"flag_count":0"display_tags":"deep house dub""is_contest_clip":false"has_hook":false"batch_index":1"action_config":{"actions":[{"action_type":"add_to_playlist""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"like_song""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"share_song""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"dislike_song""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"report_song""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"remove_from_playlist""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"play_next""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"add_to_queue""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"remix_extend""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"remix_cover""disabled":false"visible":true}{"action_type":"remix_reuse_style""disabled":false"visible":true}]}}"persona":null"clipHistoryIds":[]"time":"$undefined""sharer":null}]
Lyrics

(Verse 1)
In the outskirts of the town where shadows loom tall
Ali walks with dreams though the odds seem to fall
From humble beginnings his spirit stands tall
In the midst of adversity he answers the call

(Chorus)
Hope in his eyes like a beacon in the night
Ali's story unfolds in the dimming light
Through trials and tribulations he finds his way
In the corner of the neighborhood where hope holds sway

(Verse 2)
With each passing day he carves his own path
Facing struggles head-on never fearing the wrath
From the dusty streets to the stars above
Ali's determination shines a testament of love

(Chorus)
Hope in his eyes like a beacon in the night
Ali's story unfolds in the dimming light
Through trials and tribulations he finds his way
In the corner of the neighborhood where hope holds sway

(Bridge)
Through laughter and tears he perseveres
Building castles of dreams conquering fears
For in his heart there burns a fire
A relentless drive to reach higher and higher

(Chorus)
Hope in his eyes like a beacon in the night
Ali's story unfolds in the dimming light
Through trials and tribulations he finds his way
In the corner of the neighborhood where hope holds sway

(Outro)
So let his tale be heard far and wide
Of a boy from the outskirts with hope as his guide
For in the darkest of nights he found his ray
In the kenar mahalle where dreams find their way

Got my feet up sun on my face
Life is a ride let’s pick up the pace
With a strum of the guitar the world feels right
Let’s dance on the clouds from morning till night

LAUGHING LOUD we chase the sun
Rolling on waves oh we’re gonna have fun!
With a trombone blast we’re breaking the rules
Together we shine just a couple of fools!

Running through fields with laughter in tow
A violin sings as we steal the show
Time is a game we play it so bright
With every note played we’re taking flight

LAUGHING LOUD we chase the sun
Rolling on waves oh we’re gonna have fun!
With a trombone blast we’re breaking the rules
Together we shine just a couple of fools!

LAUGHING LOUD we chase the sun
Rolling on waves oh we’re gonna have fun!
With a trombone blast we’re breaking the rules
Together we shine just a couple of fools!

I left at seventeen before the bread was warm
took the blue suitcase nobody claimed
Mother stood polishing the same clean glass
Dad read the paper without turning a page

There was a woman’s name behind the pantry clock
written twice then crossed with a kitchen knife
I asked who she was
They asked why I was still awake

Huh

They said “You’ll understand when you’re older”
So I got older somewhere else

I was gone before the kettle sang
gone before they fixed their tale
Let them blame my age my temper
let them blame the morning train

I was gone gone gone—
they can call it running if they like
I didn’t leave because they hated me
I left because they knew me wrong

Years later a stranger stopped me near the docks
said “You walk exactly like she did”
I laughed and asked “Who?”
She looked at me as though I’d made a joke

Then she handed me a photograph:
my father younger one hand out of frame
and a girl with my uneven teeth
wearing the blue suitcase name tag

Huh Small world
Terrible handwriting

She said “Your mother tried her best”
I said “Which one?”

I was gone before the kettle sang
gone before they fixed their tale
Let them blame my age my temper
let them blame the morning train

I was gone gone gone—
they can call it running if they like
I didn’t leave because they hated me
I left because they knew me wrong

Maybe I was kept
Maybe I was traded
Maybe love gets very polite
when the truth is complicated

I never asked again

That keeps them nervous

I was gone before the kettle sang
gone before they fixed their tale
Let them polish every answer
I know where the story fails

I was gone gone gone—
huh they still insist I’m wild
I didn’t leave because I hated them
I left as someone else’s child

I have limited information
Flowers in oil
People in formation
For all the things they stole

All you want to whistle
Kettle on the stove
Together with some tea
Purple and gold

Oh this town is empty
And you are a ghost
Oh this town is empty
And you are a ghost

All you have is this skin
And what you taught me
And how you made a mark on all these things
You meant everything

I have trouble breathing
New town
New number
You were eighteen
I'll be crawling under

Oh please do not sleep here
Tell me the truth
You should have disappeared
But I fell for you

Oh this town is empty
And you are a ghost
Oh this town is empty
And you are a ghost

Bump into me and act like you don't know
A place we can be that's never cold
It's so high
Keep me warm
And I won't go

It's endless
Endless
And we can be forever young
And we can be forever
Endless
Endless
And we can be forever young
And we can be forever

It's gonna feel like magic
Floating in the air
It's so good
It shouldn't be
And no one will ever know

Endless
Endless
And we can be forever young
And we can be forever
Endless
Endless
And we can be forever young
And we can be forever
Endless
Endless
And we can be forever young
And we can be forever
Endless
Endless
And we can be forever young
And we can be forever
Endless

Time stands still in the quiet of your name
I search for you inside the flame
Your voice a light I couldn’t tame
But still I follow just the same

Take me back to the silence
Where stars once knew my face
Your shadow’s gone
But the warmth still holds its place

I rise I fall I feel it all
The beat the pulse the siren call
Through night and sky I hear your soul
Calling me home… making me whole

Calling me home
Calling me home

Ladies and gentlemen
From Vienna to Miami
From the palace to the party
They call him
Disco Machiavelli

Not a prince
Not a saint
Just trouble in a velvet jacket

He walks in late with a golden cane
White silk shirt and a champagne stain
Everybody knows but nobody tells
He buys bad luck and sells it well

Midnight phone no caller ID
Three black cars on a one-way street
He says “my dear don’t follow the rules”
Then disappears by the swimming pool

He’s got the city on a string
He makes the mirror wanna sing
Too much charm too much heat
Dancing like a scandal in the street

Disco Machiavelli
Oh-oh he’s ready
Heart so heavy
But the beat so steady

Disco Machiavelli
Ciao baby ciao
Everybody wants him
Nobody knows how

Machiavelli
Machiavelli
Nicht so schnell mein Freund

She met him once at the Hotel Noir
Red wine smile and a stolen car
He said “love is politics darling you’ll see”
Then left her name on the balcony

Velvet gloves dangerous plans
Kissing rings on invisible hands
He don’t dance he negotiates
With the DJ and the city gates

He’s got the night under control
Silver shoes and a borrowed soul
Too much style too much speed
Living like the headline of the week

Disco Machiavelli
Oh-oh he’s ready
Heart so heavy
But the beat so steady

Disco Machiavelli
Ciao baby ciao
Everybody wants him
Nobody knows how

Signorina
Listen carefully
Power is a dance floor
And everybody pays entry

He said it with a smile
Then he vanished in the bassline

Machiavelli
Machiavelli
Dance with the devil
But dress like heaven

Machiavelli
Machiavelli
Too much drama
Too much leather

Disco Machiavelli
Oh-oh he’s ready
Heart so heavy
But the beat so steady

Disco Machiavelli
Ciao baby ciao
Everybody wants him
Nobody knows how

Disco Machiavelli
Oh-oh he’s ready
Velvet panic
Television confetti

Disco Machiavelli
Ciao baby ciao
He was here for a minute
He’s a legend now

From Vienna to Miami
From the palace to the party

Disco Machiavelli

Ciao baby ciao
