The Cat Empire - Echoes Lyrics
Official




I, excavated a part of my brain
That has lain dormant for years almost disappeared
Where the prisoners all got locked away
Oh my most beautiful wonderful friends
There is one that is always afraid
One who doesn't care what people say
There is one who slits throats for money, and
One who just wants to be king for a day

We are children
Of happenstance

I could make you love me
I can take you with me
I could run forever chasing
Echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
In my farthest corners
I can feel the explosions
The booming river deep beneath my feet
Echoes, echoes, ooo

Mirror, mirror
Where are my miracles?
I looked deep in your eyes, they were very cold
There are photos plastered across the walls
People just want to believe in deities
I've been having amazing conversations
VIP booths, sexual truths
True love in kindness, who can be like this
Just lie a little bit

We are children
Of happenstance

I could make you love me
I can take you with me
I could run forever chasing
Echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
In my farthest corners
I can feel the explosions
The booming river deep beneath my feet
Echoes, echoes

Am I talking to myself?
Am I still a marionette
Am I still a marionette
If I reach above my head
And cut the thread, oh-oh
Am I talking to myself?
Am I still a marionette
Am I still a marionette
If I reach above my head
And touch the thread
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know

Am I talking to myself
Am I talking to myself
Am I, am I, am I talking to my self
Am I talking to myself
Am I talking to myself

We are children
Of happenstance

I could make you love me
I can take you with me
I could run forever chasing
Echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
In my farthest corners
I can feel the explosions
The booming river deep beneath my feet
Echoes, echoes

Echoes, echo-o-oes
Echoes, echo-o-oes
Echoes, echo-o-oes
Echoes, echo-o-oes
Echoes, echo-o-oes
Echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
