The Question Lyrics by OnceOver

The Albatross

2006

The prices that we've paid
The messes that we’ve made
The days of waste, the bitter taste
My watch has stopped again
The hours have bled together
Separate the rising tide
Of the blackened shores of this filthy city

'Cause you grow small in my rear view mirror
As the sun burns another day alive
I've had my fill, tears run still
You can stay the night
The silence breaks, the morning takes its hold

I can only wonder where you are
And how the tides have washed away
THESE PRECIOUS DAYS
My watch has stopped again

’Cause you grow small in my rear view mirror
And as the sun sets, another day will rise
I've had my fill, tears run still
You can stay the night
The silence breaks, the morning takes its hold

And the question is
Where were you?
Where were you last night?
And the question is
Where were you?
Where were you?

The sun will rise again

I've had my fill, tears run still
You can stay the night
The silence breaks, the morning takes its hold

The sun will rise again
The sun will rise again
