How Long?

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 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? 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? How long, how long? How long 'til we sink and it's only you and me? How long, how long? 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 But neither of us has the key We can live down in the flats The hills will fall eventually 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? --- How Long? - Vampire Weekend
