How long, God, will I be like this?
How long, God, will I hate myself?
How long, God, will I aim and miss,
Trying to reach your will?
How long, Lord, will I feel alone?
How long, Lord, will I struggle on?
How long, Lord, will I cry out and mourn
For the life I've never lived?

How long?
How long,
Will I stay the same?
How long?
How long,
Until I call out your name?
How long, my God, until I let go?
How long, my Lord, until I let you know
That I'm sorry for who I am.
