Eve 6 › Lyrics › How Much Longer

Drag this neurotic to hysterics
Leave him balked and unfulfilled
Holding inside outwardly patient
'Til the time he'll call it

Alurring exotic twisted hero
Leaving him more lonely still
He waits around, he's spun around
And left without the power to stop it

Peers don't know what they can't see
They can't see inside of me
It's sickening how comforting
The privacy of the mind can be, yeah

How much longer will I try before I realize
I'm desperate in the situation that I'm in again?
I'm exhausting yet another topic
I've exhausted frequently with no regrets, oh yeah
With no regrets

Abstruse and lacking rational
But making so much since some how
A stone has blocked my hourglass
No progress made, no time's run out, yeah

I'd almost rather have the latter
Save myself with sad defeat
A stone just broke my hourglass
I peel the skin that had me trapped

Peers don't know what they can't see
They can't see inside of me
It's sickening how comforting
The privacy of the mind can be, yeah

How much longer will I try before I realize
I'm desperate in the situation that I'm in again?
And I'm exhausting, yet another topic
I've exhausted, frequently with no regrets, oh yeah

How much longer will I try before I realize
I'm desperate in the situation that I'm in again?
And I'm exhausting, yet another topic
I've exhausted, frequently with no regrets, oh yeah
