How Long
Sitting in the corner of an empty room
Your eyes tell me that you feel confused
And I know that you'll turn your back on me and walk away
Looking for the answer in a whiskey glass each night
Drink bar to bar hoping you'll see the light
See the world in grey and it's going nowhere
Tell me how long how long am I
Supposed to be falling far behind?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Tell me how long how long will you
Make me swallow my pride for you?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Use my body like an old guitar
Play my broken strings write lyrics with my heart
I won't go out of tune I'll do anything to get through to you
Tell me something does this make things right?
To be apologizing for something that's only in your mind?
Let me dive my hands in and pull out all the lead in your heart
Tell me how long how long am I
Supposed to be falling far behind?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Tell me how long how long will you
Make me swallow my pride for you?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Let 's say I fucked up
That I'm the one at fault
What can I say must I beg why do you make me crawl?
On my knees fingers bleeding for you and I'm walking blind
Tell me how long how long am I
Supposed to be falling far behind?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Tell me how long how long will you
Make me swallow my pride for you?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Your eyes tell me that you feel confused
And I know that you'll turn your back on me and walk away
Looking for the answer in a whiskey glass each night
Drink bar to bar hoping you'll see the light
See the world in grey and it's going nowhere
Tell me how long how long am I
Supposed to be falling far behind?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Tell me how long how long will you
Make me swallow my pride for you?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Use my body like an old guitar
Play my broken strings write lyrics with my heart
I won't go out of tune I'll do anything to get through to you
Tell me something does this make things right?
To be apologizing for something that's only in your mind?
Let me dive my hands in and pull out all the lead in your heart
Tell me how long how long am I
Supposed to be falling far behind?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Tell me how long how long will you
Make me swallow my pride for you?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Let 's say I fucked up
That I'm the one at fault
What can I say must I beg why do you make me crawl?
On my knees fingers bleeding for you and I'm walking blind
Tell me how long how long am I
Supposed to be falling far behind?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
Tell me how long how long will you
Make me swallow my pride for you?
Tell me how long how long how long
Will we play this game?
