Cannonball Lyrics by OnceOver

The Albatross

2006

Gone in a minute
Once monolith, scattered and sinking
Gone in minute
We can bring it back together

Please, in yesterday's twilight
Remember how the shadows grew so long
Into another night in town
Would it be missed long after it's gone?

I fell in, I fell forever
For nothing, for nothing that could be
All the words I could've said
All the words were never read
For nothing, for nothing that could

A wish to take it slow
A hook that won't let go
We sleep to the sound
We sleep to the sound
This cannonball, this cannonball
This cannonball, this cannonball

The sweetest hit, the rocks below
The biting jaws that won't let go
The sweetest hit, the rocks below
The biting jaws that won't let go

With time we'll all be washed away
With time we'll all be washed away
With time we'll all be washed away
With time we'll all be washed away
With time we'll all be washed away
With time we'll all be washed away
With time we'll all be washed away
With time we'll all be washed away

This cannonball, this cannonball
This cannonball, this cannonball

The sweetest hit, the rocks below
The biting jaws that won't let go
The sweetest hit, the rocks below
The biting jaws that won't let go

Gone in a minute
Once monolith, scattered and sinking
Gone in minute
We can bring it back together
