Questions
Intro:
so many questions I have in my mind the answers are troubling
they take far too much time
Verse 1:
like when the night sky cries
where do they go
those shooting stars that fade away
does the man in the moon sit majestically still is he counting them as they pass one by one is he counting them all one by one
Verse 2:
what kind of life will you leave behind will they know your name
will they even recall
the time spent together
or the days apart
when those embers fade and
the ashes get swept away
you know those ashes get swept away
Chorus:
what happens to us all when we draw our last breath and the store keeper tally's the cost
will our deeds be the tender and the recompense
to that which we owe our soul
that which we owe our soul
Verse 3:
and where goes the ocean
the parts we can't see
where the deep blue gets consumed into black what secrets does it hold like the stories of our lives those dirty little chapters we want no one to read we dont want anyone to read
Chorus:
what happens to us all when we draw our last breath and the store keeper tally's the cost
will our deeds be the tender and recompense
to that which we owe our soul
that which we owe our soul
Verse 4:
by what means do we measure life
while we're driven by selfishness and greed my needs are great and your cup looks full
but you don't have even a morsel to spare
which face do you use when you're speaking to the masses it's the vale that hides that evil truth
self preservation is your priority in life
an insatiable hunger thats too empty to fill
you know it's too empty to fill
Chorus:
what happens to us all when we draw our last breath and the store keeper tally's the cost
will our deeds be the tender and recompense
to that which we owe our very own soul
that which we owe our very own soul
Outro:
by which means do we measure a life where goes the ocean the parts we cant see what kind of life you going to leave behind when the night sky cries
where do they go
