Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This kid's impatient, can't wait for changes
He's been dreaming of the days without aching
He's working hard, but it all stays the same
'Cause he's got bigger plans for this one-act play
[PreChorus]
With cuts on his hands, the blood never dries
He's watching the night, expecting a sign
Out in a world that we never, ever see or know
[Chorus]
He says, "How long
How long until it comes true?"
He says, "How long?
Or have I been wishing on these things like a goddamn fool?"
[PostChorus]
(How long?)
[Verse 2]
She asks for nothing, but she answers demands
She's been wasting time on a bad romance
Their names change, but they're always the same
The next week, it starts over again
[PreChorus]
For her evening is dark, brighter than her day
She's scared of the abyss to find an escape
Out in a world that we never, ever see or know
[Chorus]
She says, "How long (How long?)
How long until it comes true?"
She says, "How long? (How long?)
Or have I been wishing on these things like a goddamn fool?"
[PostChorus]
(How long?)
[Bridge]
When it gets so hard, you gotta wish on a star
Fate shows up when you know what you want to change
But it comes too late
When it gets so hard, you gotta wish on a star
Fate shows up when you know what you want to change
But it comes too late
[Chorus]
He says, "How long (How long?)
How long until it comes true?"
He says, "How long? (How long?)
Or have I been wishing on these things like a goddamn fool?"
[Outro]
(How long?)
