Half of My Heart Lyrics

I was born in the arms of imaginary friends.
Free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been

   Shot gun wedding means there is a pregnancy involved. I.E: the shotgun that her dad is holding to his head to get them married. He's saying half of himself is being forced into this-- but the other half really is in love with her.

   Sounds like the guy's never believed in anything until the girl showed up and brought something so real to him. He is trying to open up to her love and all it could bring but he's never loved anyone but himself. He tries but he can only let go of half of his heart.
