How Long

HOW LONG
Words and Music by Ian Kurz
At the time I couldn't see it coming
It slipped right by me like you want it to
I've got to find a bit of strength within me
I think you need to see that I can get through
Times like these, I had everything I wanted
So I say please, you know I never want to do this again
(How long) can it take for this to go away
my mind is racing like a runaway train
(It goes on) and I think that I just can't be the same?
But now it's here, and I've gotta' find a way to face it
I make excuses for the times I can't
I kind of learned there's a way that I can just embrace it
But I'm the shell of what was once a man
(How long) can it take for this to go away
my mind is racing like a runaway train
(It goes on) and I think that I just can't be the same.
(How long) can it take for this to go away
my mind is racing like a runaway train
(It goes on) and I think that I just can't be the same.
