How long should I wait
In this ultimatum of fate
In the wake of this
Panicked late chase
How long would it take?
To build up your walls
And tear them down again
In a shake, a quake of for goodness sake
Here we go again
Just please
Wait
And tell me
How long would it take?
To lose you and find you again
To play these games and never win
To reel you in and throw you into the waters of leeches
Tell me please
How long would it take?
To break your heart
And twist it around
Crumble it all up
And go right back to the start
To shred you up
Because you deserve it
Tell me please
How long would it take?
To kill you like you killed me
It's kill or be killed
You see what's left of me?
You hurt me
So now it's revenge
Tell me please
How you could fake, and make
me hate you so bad
So please tell me,
How long would it take?
