lyrics

Standing, edge of a fountain
Shining coins at the bottom
Hoping, willing that all my
Wishing wells appease Poseidon
Please don’t pull us down

I’ve lost all of my patience
Waiting for someone to save us
We’re on the edge of extinction
Voices shaking at the news
We’re not so innocent

I don’t want to be Atlantis
Beautiful and wasted
At the bottom of the sea
I don’t want to be Atlantis
Beautiful and wasted
I don’t want to be a memory

Raining, happy to drown so
Slowly, that I barely notice
Maybe we don’t deserve saving
If we shrug our shoulders at the end
And just lay down

I don’t want to be Atlantis
Beautiful and wasted
At the bottom of the sea
I don’t want to be Atlantis
Beautiful and wasted
I don’t want to be a memory

I’ll take harder now and a longer then
Over easy starts and a pointless end
I’ll take harder now and a longer then
Over easy starts and a pointless end

I don’t want to be Atlantis
Beautiful and wasted
At the bottom of the sea
I don’t want to be Atlantis
Beautiful and wasted
Beautiful and wasted
I don’t want to be Atlantis
Beautiful and wasted
At the bottom of the sea
I don’t want to be Atlantis
Beautiful and wasted
I don’t want to be a memory
