The Cat Awoke

[Verse 1]

The cat awoke to find the room was still there

The mirror broke and yet you're still alive

Like rain, like blood, like crying

You're dressed in mud, the finest I have ever seen

Command your men

There's really no excuse this time

[Chorus]

And yet the mighty also fall

And you can't command them all this time

You're playing the other side again

The game is on the line

Perhaps you'll win the next time

[Verse 2]

And if they ask

He'd say he never sang for anyone but you

A waste of breathe, the waste of growing old

Expecting absolution

Insisting that you did it for mercy, did it for love

[Chorus]

And yet the mighty also fall

And you can't command them all this time

You're playing the other side again

The game is on the line

Perhaps you'll win, but not this time

The mighty also fall

And you can't command them all
