The Cat Empire - Bow Down to Love Lyrics

Just for a second, when I fire up the morning
I can put my headphones on
And all the poisoned points of view are
Just a river keeps on flowing
Sometimes almost sounds like someone's precious music
But I can't hear the tune

Alas, we're not invincible yet
Alas, we can only just touch the sky

You're gonna have to cover my eyes
Cover my mouth, lock me up
Smash my windows, burn my house
And still, still I'd fall to my knees
And bow down to love, yeah, ooh
I'd fall to my knees and bow down to love

You gone and tore up all your carpets
Dusted all your plants with kosher salt
And pirouetted through the morning sun
Then when your friends would try to call
You wouldn't answer, they came knocking
So you hid inside the doorway till they'd gone

Alas, we're not invincible yet
Alas, we can only just touch the sky

You're gonna have to cover my eyes
Cover my mouth, lock me up
Smash my windows, burn my house
And still, still I'd fall to my knees
And bow down to love, yeah, ooh
I'd fall to my knees and bow down to love
I'd fall to my knees and bow down to love

You're gonna have to kill me now
You're gonna to have to kill me now
You're gonna to have to kill me now
Or else I'll bow down to love, love

Maybe it's a mirror broken
Maybe I should turn and run

Maybe it's a mirror broken
Maybe I should hold your hand

The second just before you wake
The second just before you wake
The second just before you wake
The second just before you

I stole 100 million dollars from the bank
Of nowhere, where they keep nothing
Till it's value can be found
And every morning I pass piles of mutilated
Burned and melted credit cards
Well nobody owns them now

Alas, we're not invincible yet
Alas, we can only just touch the sky

Well you're
Gonna have to cover my eyes
Cover my mouth, lock me up
Smash my windows, burn my house
And still, still I'd fall to my knees
And bow down to love, yeah, ooh
I'd fall to my knees and bow down to love
I'd fall to my knees and bow down to love
You're gonna have to kill me now
Or else I'll bow down to love
You're gonna have to kill me now
You're gonna have to kill me now
Or else I'll bow down to love

Lock me up
Smash my windows, burn my house
Fall to my knees
