Atlantis

The birds have left their trees, the light pours onto me
I can feel you lying there all on your own
We got here the hard way, all those words that we exchange
Is it any wonder things get broke?

'Cause in my heart n' in my head, I'll never take back the things I said
So high above, I feel it coming down
She said, "In my heart and in my head tell me why this has to end"
Oh, no, oh, no-oh-oh-oh

I can't save us, my Atlantis, we fall
We built this town on shaky ground
I can't save us, my Atlantis, oh, no
We built it up to pull it down

Oh-no, oh-no (oh), oh-no, oh-no
Oh-oh, no-oh-oh-ooh, I can't save us
Oh-no, oh-no (oh), oh-no, oh-no
Oh-oh, no-oh-oh-ooh, I can't save us

Now all the birds have fled, the hurt just leaves me scared
Losing everything I've ever known
It's all become too much, maybe I'm not built for love
If I knew that I could reach you, I would go

It's in my heart n' in my head, you can't take back the things you said
So high above, I feel it coming down
She said, "In my heart and in my head tell me why this has to end"
Oh, no, oh, no-oh-oh-oh

I can't save us, my Atlantis, we fall
We built this town on shaky ground
I can't save us, my Atlantis, oh, no
We built it up to pull it down

Yeah, we build it up, and we build it up
Yeah, we build it up to pull it down
And we build it up, and we build it up
And we build it up to pull it down

Oh-no, oh-no (oh), oh-no, oh-no
Oh-oh, no-oh-oh-ooh, I can't save us
Oh-no, oh-no (oh), oh-no, oh-no
Oh-oh, no-oh-oh-ooh, I can't save us

I can't save us, my Atlantis, we fall
We built this town on shaky ground
I can't save us, my Atlantis, oh, no
We built it up to pull it down
