Lyrics: [F.RIEBL]
I had nine lives but I lost all of them
And I've been searching in the night
And I've been searching in the rain
I tried to find them
But they disappeared
They walked away they dressed in black
They left my side and all I say
Is that I wasted time
When I looked for them
For now I know that things gone past
Are never to be found again
No never never again
I had nine lives
But lost all of them

I had a plan
But never finished it
And I've been searching for the thought
And I've been searching in a haze
I try all days
To remember it
But now the blueprint in my mind has gone
My mind forgot the colour of direction
And my eyes they see the hands
That could have built
That could have constructed
The empire in my mind
The empire
I'll never find
I had a plan
But that was where it ended

About:
Formed in Melbourne, Australia and adored the world over, The Cat Empire is a musical success story that continues to be written. The trajectory the six-piece have sustained for their 20-year career has been lead by a shared passion for bringing joy through their infectious, genre-embracing anthems and making global audiences dance.

The band started from humble beginnings, making music and playing sweaty clubs around Melbourne. Their fans would introduce friends to what they were dancing to, and the ground-swell began. The Cat Empire have gone on to release seven studio albums with global chart success.

The Cat Empire's hard work and connection to their worldwide audience have made them a significant Australian global music export for two decades. They are in high demand from Promoters the world over for headline festival slots year on year from Glastonbury and WOMAD to Bonnaroo and Bluesfest due to the unique brand of feel-good Australian music and their enduring ability to consistently deliver a world-class live show.

July 2021 sees the band return with new music recorded earlier this year at the studio of long time friend and Producer Jan Skubiszewski's Red Moon studio in regional Victoria and recordings by Diego Guerrero at Estudio La Burilla Madrid. The recordings feature the Empire Horns, Yuri Pavlinov on bass and writers, singers and Palmas from Barcelona and Madrid.
