Intro: |
The birds have left the 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 |
And 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 |
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 |
Bridge: |
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 |
And 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 |
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 |
And 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 |
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 |
