Lyrics Going to Live - The Cat Empire

Going to Live

Enough of this world I want to be free
I know I’m not lying, but what does that mean?
Enough of this day I want to just sleep
But the bullets all flying in the back of my dreams
Enough of this high, enough of this spree
I want to go down where the deep goes deep
In the back of my mind see a Haka face me
Man you going to die?
Nah, I’m gonna live
Y si ya todo se cae
Yo quiero salir volando
Jodido pero luchador
La vida sera mejor
I’m one of them ghosts you pass on the street
Do I recognise you?
Do you recognise me?
Been wearing my mask long before Cov-ee
I wonder who shares the same secret?
Some of them nod, some of them wink
Some of them stare somewhere distant
One showed me their face to a bare skeleton
Man you going to die?
Nah, I’m gonna live
Y si ya todo se cae
Yo quiero salir volando
Jodido pero luchador
La vida sera mejor
On the rooftops at dusk can you hear them sing?
While the empty streets below echo with resonance for the residents
Who for one crowded hour won’t let nothing beat them
Ain’t that worth something before it starts again?
In this city I’m in where the true-heart beats, they sing
Oh…
You’re no fine wine you taste too gritty
You’ve never been safe or clean or pretty
Your beauty don’t lie, your beauty don’t fake
It makes a man tremble it makes a man shake
It shakes up my ground and stirs up my fear
I won’t turn my back or pretend it’s not here
I’m filled up with emptiness, what’s left to give?
Man you going to die?
Nah, I’m gonna live
Y si ya todo se cae
Yo quiero salir volando
Jodido pero luchador
La vida sera mejor
Oh…
