《How Long》是一首由加拿大歌手Paula Toledo創作並演唱的一首歌曲。該歌曲的部分片段在2000年代中期出現在多種俄羅斯盜版電影DVD中。直到2023年底，人們才找到了這首歌的全曲以及歌手的名字。
概要
2007年8月30日，這首歌的片段被用戶Nega發到烏克蘭論壇night.kharkov.ua上，並於11月4日被轉發到mp3forum.com.ua，但兩個貼子都沒有受到多少關注。2007年11月15日，用戶Kieron將其發在了allthelyrics.com，獲得了幾個回復，但很快大家就放棄了尋找。
2020年中旬，WatZatSong用戶alexx1984重新上傳了這個片段，使這首歌受到了關注。alexx1984描述這首歌來自電影《Jackou le Croquant》的俄羅斯盜版DVD。
2023年10月9日，用戶ShaiiValley在YouTube上傳了一段關於這首歌的視頻，引發更多人對這首歌產生興趣。很快，這首歌又在兩張不同的俄羅斯盜版DVD上被發現，這兩張DVD分別名為「МУЛЬТИПAРАД 3」和「МУЛЬТИПАРАД 4」。DVD收錄了《怪物史萊克》、《快樂的大腳》、《未來小子》等動畫電影，在DVD的選片菜單中這首歌被用作背景音樂，但不完整。

歌詞
[Verse 1: Paula Toledo]
Didn't work out the way I thought
I must have mistaken myself
For someone I was not (oh, no)
So I pushed myself to see how far I could go
Didn't need to look that far
To learn what I needed to know
[Pre-Chorus 1: Paula Toledo with Jonathan Anderson]
Didn't want to be a quitter
But I had to find my way
[Chorus: Paula Toledo and Jonathan Anderson]
How long? (How long)
Will it take, oh-oh
How long? (How long)
Will it take me to feel?
How long? (How long)
Will it take, oh-oh
How long until it's the way I thought it would be?
When I won't aim to please
[Verse 2: Paula Toledo]
And you watched me draw the line
Never to be cast again
In the same light (oh, no)
And I don't blame you, they were choices I made
Didn't want to let you down
But I can't play it that safe
[Pre-Chorus 2: Paula Toledo with Jonathan Anderson]
In your mind am I a sinner?
Looking for relief?
[Chorus: Paula Toledo and Jonathan Anderson]
How long? (How long)
Will it take, oh-oh
How long? (How long)
Will it take me to feel?
How long? (How long)
Will it take, oh-oh
How long until it's the way I thought it would be?
When I won't aim to please
When I won't aim to please
When I won't aim to please
[Bridge]
No, I won't be a doll in your pretty dollhouse
No, I won't be the plaything that you can toss around
No, I won't be the child who lives for acceptance
No, I won't any longer live in my reflection
[Chorus: Paula Toledo and Jonathan Anderson]
How long?
Will it take, oh-oh
How long?
Will it take me to feel?
How long?
Will it take, oh-oh
How long?
Will it take me to feel?
How long? (How long)
Will it take, oh-oh
How long? (How long)
Will it take me to feel?
How long? (How long)
Will it take, oh-oh
How long until it's the way I thought it would be?
When I won't aim to please
When I won't aim to please
When I won't aim to please
