How Long? (Live in St. Augustine)

[Verse 1]

Tough choice? Don't make me laugh

My life's a joke, your life's a gas

You broke my heart at midnight mass

Now I'm the ghost of Christmas past

The only choice you gave to me

Is one I took reluctantly

'Cause when we play democracy

You always take immunity

[Chorus]

How long 'til we sink to the bottom of the sea?

How long, how long?

How long 'til we sink and it's only you and me?

How long, how long?

[Post-Chorus]

How long? (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)

How long? (La-la-la-la)

How long? (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)

How long? (La-la-la-la)

[Verse 2]

What's the point of getting clean?

You'll wear the same old dirty jeans

What's the point of being seen?

Those eyes are cruel, those eyes are mean

What's the point of human beings?

A Sharpie face on tangerines

Why's it felt like Halloween since Christmas 2017?

[Chorus]

How long?

How long, how long?

How long 'til we sink and it's only you and me?

How long, how long?

[Post-Chorus]

How long? (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)

How long? (La-la-la-la)

How long? (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)

How long? (La-la-la-la)

[Verse 3]

Getting to the top

Wasn't supposed to be this hard

The house is on Mulholland Drive

The car's on Sunset Boulevard

The registration's here with me

Neither of us has the key

We can live down in the flats

The hills will fall eventually

[Chorus]

How long 'til we sink to the bottom of the sea?

How long, how long?

How long 'til we sink and it's only you and me?

How long, how long?

[Post-Chorus]

How long? (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)

How long? (La-la-la-la)

How long? (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)

How long? (La-la-la-la)
