Cat Empire - No Longer There Lyrics
|
Genre/Lang. : Pop/Rock |
and though you’d like to hear a song
that sings everything’s alright
The temperature is warm
The fire horses sleep
So gently comes a night
You close your eyes and stare
The ground they’re on is bare
But once it was as deep
As wildest giants dreams
It’s no longer there
And all of our desires
could mirror skies with flames
And smoke out heaven’s halls
And who was that you called
They're no longer there
Here it goes again
Here it goes again
Here it goes again
What would you leave behind when all your fields are dead?
When your territories are dried out and your cities drowned and swept
What would you leave behind when those who bear your name are born in that place that you wrecked?
What would you leave behind when you're no longer there?
Would you sail to distant shores
And hide within the haze?
And softly close your door
Pretend the world was saved
Wait for heaven’s call
Or would you turn and face the sea
And calm decide you care?
There’s chance but if you dare
as swift as honour's steeds
Before it’s no longer there
Here it goes again
Here it goes agaaain
Here it goes aga-ain!
What would you leave behind when all your fields are dead?
When your territories are dried out and your cities drowned and swept
What would you leave behind when those who bear your name are born in that place that you wrecked?
What would you leave behind when you're no longer there?
To deny or to depair
It’s really just the same
Everything between
It means we have to change
‘Cause when a one forgets
Their world begins to fade
And all the shapes and shades
That made their colours see
Well they suddenly turn grey
Then they're no longer there
