Lyrics: [F.RIEBL]
Do you ever look around
turn your ear to the ground
show your face to the sky
on a night when the skies echoe sounds
from inside of your mind
on the stage that you shone
where the sun did become you
and move with your thoughts
through the sighs and the scenes
of the worlds you have seen
and the sights that have been
your reflection in shadows and dreams?
your reflection in shadows and dreams
Did you ever see a man
who did walk down the street
white robe with no shoes on his feet
and on top of his head place a box with two slits
and the sign from his neck said
‘I do not exist’
or a woman who could not remember her name
did stutter and stutter
again and again
and saw you and called you her son
her eyes said
‘my being is gone
but still I’m not dead’?
Miserere
Have you ever seen a sound
have you listened to an image
have you ever touched a thought
have you ever tasted nothing
have you ever told a lie
that was true more than truth
because truth it had lied
all its life when it spoke to you?
And what did it say
it is that it is this
this goes here here is there
it is not yes it is
it was dulling your senses
your eyes they were bound
have you ever my friends
been looking around?
And the other replies
with a wave of a hand
I am already here
in this promised land
but not by a god and not by a king
and not by a spirit
deep from within
I am here
because a miracle’s a whim
it’s a flash of glory
it’s an empty tin
and maybe might lets you in
not to save you
but to keep on looking-
Miserere…
Have you ever
been so happy that you’re sad?
that the lights turn to stars
and the stars become eyes
and hello’s are goodbye’s
and the laughs are the sigh’s
and the show disappears with the note
‘until next time’
Long live living
if living can be this
Long live living
if living can be this
Long live living
if living can be this
Long live living
if living can be this
Do you ever look around
turn your ear to the ground
show your face to the sky
on a night when the skies echo sounds
from inside of your mind
on the stage that you shone
where the sun did become you
and move with your thoughts
through the sighs and the scenes
of the worlds you have seen
and the sights that have been
your reflection in shadows and dreams
Do you ever look around
and find what is yet to be found?

Shoutout to Robert Evans from Behind the Bastards ❤️
❤ robert. Hope he takes the time he needs
Also here from Robert's tweet. Condolences
RIP Robert's dad. Keeping you in my thoughts, Robert.
I know his father recently passed but what's the connection with this song?
This is literally one of the best songs I've ever heard. So underrated :(.
Played at the end of Hannah Gadsby’s final show of the tour in Carré Amsterdam. We all bathed in blue light and Gadsby sat in the crowd and we all stayed
I don't know how this song hasn't had millions of views, It's been my favourite song for 12 years and I don't think anything could replace this pure masterpiece.
I litterally spent 50 minutes searching through Cat Empire songs to find this. Seriously worth every second.
Long live living if living can be this!
Especially since it was fifty minutes of cat empire
@@skinnysnorlax1876 most defiantly mate
Let me tell you a story. I discovered this song after my uncle had passed away, it was a short illness, he had a young daughter and he loved life.
For years I couldnt listen to this song because the lyrics “ long live living if living can be this “ broke my fucking heart knowing the life he had built was gone.. this was in 2010
I am now in a great place, with someone I love, and randomly tonight thought, I’d listen to this song again to see if it still made me cry... yes I welled up a bit but the meaning had changed. I’ve now found my own “ long live living if living can be this” so thank you Cat Empire
Ollie x
Long live living
Beautiful
:')
This song lifts me out of depression
Tiefe Verbindung....zu einer großen Liebe 💘....wunderschön!❤
I'm enchanted with this song. I heard it for the first time about 5 days ago and I must have listened to it 50 - 100 times since then.
A beautiful song showing an appreciation for all things.
incredible song... The word beauty was created for it.
What a beautiful song
This song is an amazing piece of art. Absolutely Wonderful!
Gimmie a thumbs up if you are listening to this glorious jam on repeat. Absolutely amazing song. World's most underrated song 🎵
This music ( all of it ) speaks to my heart and my life experience. Thank you Cat Empire ❤
A deceptively great song.
Thx Birgit!
Hannah Gadsby brought me here, and i am very happy about it.
Bewitching
I listened to this in class because we had to do an analysis and shit I’m in love
Year nine English....and an outlet....even if mixed....😊
Me encantó.
Have you ever told a lie that was true more than truth because truth it had lied all its life when it spoke to you?
❤❤❤
Sadly this is not on the US release of Two Shoes. You guys are great, btw, missed you this last North American tour
metheus108 buy an Aussie copy, just for this song, it’s worth it
Một bài hát mà tôi yêu thích nhất
Goezy.....on water pollution....or we'll have permanent black clouds....as in 'The Simpsons' episode....lotta lessons to be had....in that series 😮
One day i'm gonna make a medieval film with this song in the soundtrack
Hurry up, can't wait
you wouldn't
>:(
Vou junto contigo
Abrir as fileiras desse ser falante
Nesse reencontro quero estar
Contigo
Repito todas vezes pra mim mesmo
Sobre os seres que deixamos para traz
little Max :(
came here from the wolfstar fic
This song is about owning a Land Rover
Who is the person who makes the refrain? the part of miserere?
the little brother of the singer
Ali Indus awww
He was a choir boy when they made this, now he's grown up but still stuns with his voice, watch the live of this and you'll see for yourself :)
Max Riebl now a great countertenor
@@lestatblack7 RIP Max, who died of cancer in May 2022, aged 30 years. May Max rest in eternal peace.
Who the hell disliked?
