Atlantis

The prophets say this place will sink beneath the waves someday
The entrails point to ashes but I don't care if it all goes away
Each night the last sound I hear is your breathing next to me
And if the sun don't come up tomorrow there's no place I'd rather be
Everyone's freaking out cutting the trees down & pushing rafts into the tide
There's a waiting list for the altars as the smoke curls up to the sky

Let's you & me go down to the beach tonight and have ourselves a barbecue
If I'm gonna make a burnt offering let it be pleasing unto you

The cities may crumble and the Seas may swallow the land
But you and me in Atlantis we will make our stand
We may be tiny as the wave hits the shore
But together in Atlantis we are something more

We get to see it the last day of this world
We get to see the legends come true
What a privilege what an honor
To witness the last of existence with you

With nothing to do the gods will get sleepy again
They'll start to turn out the palace lights
We'll have the whole place to ourselves
Golden instruments on shelves
Let's see if we can wake them up tonight

The mountains they rumble the temples they tumble on down
Just hold my hand tight as we jump these new cracks in the ground
The end of all things doesn't seem too much to endure
They say nothing's forever
But then I look in your eyes and I'm not so sure

The cities may crumble and the Seas may swallow the land
But if you're with me in Atlantis I will understand
We may be tiny as the wave hits the shore
But together in Atlantis we are something more
We may be tiny as the wave hits the shore
But together in Atlantis we are so much more
