Sick with regret, you sputter out Your flames followed in doubt Light the cigarette, in take a breathe The smoke inflates your chest And thins your blood So you bleed less, inside Left with the mess that came about When you chose to live without On foreign shores, your fighter died Life’s thrown before your eyes And leaves its toll On your callused empty soul
How long, how long will we be desperately alone? How long, how long
How long, how long will we have to pay for what we’ve done? How long, how long
What we would give to feel alive Through the broken muffled cry The anchor lost, and so are mine We fall victims to the tide I’m free to dance I’m free to die and My times now
How long, how long will we be desperately alone? How long, how long
How long, how long will we have to pay for what we’ve done? How long, how long.
