How Long

Climb on top of all you despise
 It's a better view from the lies
 Two steps behind before I've begun
 Time stops to tell me all I could have done
 And I'll say
 How long till the word will be completed
 How many times will history repeat it
 How long will it take
 How long
 How long
 I want to go
 Will you show me the way
 
 I'd rather be wrong than be deceived
 To thinking that I believe
 That I can stand to be here on my own
 
 There's too many questions that we won't ask
 In hopes that this too will pass
 But how far down do we have to go before we know it
