The Cat Empire – Open Up Your Face lyrics

[Verse:]
While the traffic hums,
When the madness comes
As the wild buzzes
While the wild will run.

[Pre-Chorus:]
Like a flower that reaches out its fingers to the rain.
Like a bird that flies above the gutters and the graves.

[Chorus:]
Open up your face, open up your face,
And move without a trace,
You move without a trace.

[Verse:]
And the water’s fine
As we drift away.
Every single night
Every single day.

[Pre-Chorus:]
Like a human cannon ball who pierce the match strike flame
Like a prisoner listening to the rumble of the train.

[Chorus:]
Open up your face, open up your face,
And move without a trace,
You move without a trace.

[Bridge:]
And I know you want me, I want you
You want me, I want you
You want me, I want you.

[Verse:]
When it’s coming down
Drop your cloth of rain
All the neighbors running at
On a street of game.

[Pre-Chorus:]
Like a cooling glowing through some desert afternoon
Like the priest who kneels before his Mary in the gloom.

[Chorus:]
Open up your face, open up your face,
And move without a trace,
You move without a trace.

And I know you want me, I want you,
You want me, I want you,
You want me, I want you,
You want me, I want you,
You want me, I want you,
You want me, I want you,
You want me, I want you.
