Lyrics: [F.REIBL]
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 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
Do you ever look around
and find what is yet to be found?
About:
Formed in Melbourne, Australia and adored the world over, The Cat Empire is a musical success story that continues to be written. Throughout their 20 year career, the band's stratospheric trajectory has continued unabated, becoming one of Australia's most successful musical exports, growing an army of ardent fans at home and abroad.
Since their teens, the six bound together by a love of music, and bolstered by the career-long guidance of Manager Correne Wilkie, have gone about the business of crafting infectious, genre-embracing anthems and releasing chart-topping, multi-platinum albums to take to the live stage. It was not unusual to find the band performing on main stage bills at iconic international festivals, selling out the world's most famous arenas, mobbed by supporters and media at airports in Spain, and appearing on top rating T.V. shows like Letterman and Leno.
In September 2021, The Cat Empire announced that after 20 years, the band's original line-up would play their final shows together, culminating in a massive show and virtual concert from their hometown of Melbourne in December.
The next chapter of The Cat Empire begins with founding members Felix Riebl and Ollie McGill stepping forward with "a re-imagined, vibrant, cross-cultural, and joyful collective of musicians and artists", with new music planned for 2022.

Rest in peace Max, what an incredible talent. I can't imagine what a loss must be felt. By those who loved him.
Rest in Peace Max. You’re voice was just heavenly and you will be missed dearly..!!! ❤😞
Always singing with angels….he’ll be missed. What a gift he shared 🙏🏼
The way he looks at his brother is Brighter than Gold. I'm so glad they shared that moment together. Honestly, for me, The Cat Empire is the greatest band there is with the coolest songs. Absolutely love them and wish I could've seen them live..
Max, that is beautiful RIP 🙏 ♥️🇦🇺
The love and pride for his brother in his eyes at 5:55! So adorable

I've never heard this before. I'm taken to heaven. I just don't have the words to say how spiritual this is, in every way. Thank you.
Tears in my eyes. Rest in Peace, Max Riebl. Listening to your beautiful voice is sublime and now bittersweet. You will be deeply missed. My deepest condolences to your family and those who were close to you.

Danke für diesen live Mitschnitt. Gänsehaut - jedesmal ❤. Und die lyrics - so deep connected
Extremely tragic news that the "little brother," Max , has passed away at age 31 with brain tumour. A truly uniquely talented superstar in so many ways.
RIP Max ❤ Voice of an angel xox
Almost 3 months, and I'm still struggling.
Long live living if living can be this! 🙌
This song heals the soul.
Just saw them at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver (2023-11-21). The way Felix spoke of his little brother and his talent was beautiful and then when he sang "Be With You Again"... off the charts emotional. What a great band
Rest In Peace Max, missed by many hearts. What a voice, what a song.

We're all here for you if you need us.
Little Brother`s voice soaring to heaven. This song was great when he was a Choir Boy and his part is even more awsome now. Not even mentioning the lyrics. Musik like this helps when the abyss gazes back. :)
Rest In Peace Max! I Feel Bad For Felix’s Young Brother
What a beautiful show. The vocals, the brass, the energy and love in the band and in the crowd. There's really nothing like it.
Those brother and this song are something from another world
fuck i got goosebumps, that has got to be the best version of this song ever
RIP Max. Go safely.
AMAZING! Tears in my eyes. This song truly is my all time favorite.
