The Cat Empire – Echoes lyrics

[Verse 1]
I, excavated a part of my brain
That has lain dormant for years almost disappeared
Where the prison is all [?]
On 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

[Pre-Chorus]
We are a children
Of happenstance

[Chorus]
I could make you love me
I could take you with me
I could run forever chasing
Echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
In my furthest corners
I can feel the explosions
The booming real deep beneath my feet
Echoes, echoes, echoes

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
We are a children
Of happenstance

[Chorus]
I can make you love me
I can take you with me
I can run forever chasing
Echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
In my furthest corners
I can feel the explosions
The booming real deep beneath my feet
Echoes, echoes

[Bridge]
Am I talking to myself?
Am I still under your net
Am I still under your net
If I reach above my head
And touch the [?], oh-oh
Am I still under your net
If I reach above my head
And touch the [?]
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...

[Pre-Chorus]
We are children
Of happenstance

[Chorus]
I can make you love me
I can take you with me
I can run forever chasing
Echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes
In my furthest corners
I can feel the explosions
The booming real deep beneath my feet
Echoes, echo-o-es

[Outro]
Echoes, echo-o-oes
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...
