The Cat Empire - Stolen Diamonds

Echoes

I excavated a part of my brain
That has layin' dormant for
Years almost disappeared
Where the prisoners all
Got locked away
All 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 could take you with me
I could run forever chasing
Echoes, echoes, echoes, echoes

In my farthest corners
I can feel explosions
The booming river
Deep beneath my feet
Echoes, echoes

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 having amazing conversations
In VIP booths, sexual truths
True loving kindness,
You can be like this
Just lie a little bit

We are children of happenstance

I can make you love me
I can take you with me
I can run forever chasing
Echoes echoes echoes echoes

In my farthest corners
I can feel 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-whoa...

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 myself
Am I talking to myself
Am I talking to myself

We are children of happenstance

I can make you love me
I can take you with me
I can run forever chasing
Echoes, echoes
Echoes, echoes

In my farthest corners
I can feel explosions
The booming river deep
Beneath my feet
Echoes, echoes
Echoes, echoes
Echoes, echoes
Echoes, echoes
Echoes, echoes
Echoes, echoes

Echoes echoes,
Echoes, echoes
Echoes echoes,
Echoes, echoes
