How long til I don't have to feel a single thing when I see your face?
'Til I don't have butterflies in my stomach
or shivers down my spine
or an aching in my bones
or the feeling of being whole
yet feeling alone

How long until you don't mean anything to me?
Til it feels like it was all just a bad dream
and when I wake up from the catastrophe
will my body still feel the same when I hear your voice
say my name?

How long until I'm just able to just let it all go?
To finally be able to separate my temptations from what I know
To finally be able to say this was never a good idea
and even though your dark eyes make everything seem crystal clear
this is nothing more than a hazy mistake

You will never fill the crack in my heartache

So how long before I just let go?
