Cause in my heart and in my head, I never take back the things I said So high and bold, 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, why Atlantis we fall We built this town on shaky ground I can't save us, why Atlantis, oh no We built it up to pull it down 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 and bold, 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, why Atlantis we fall We built this town on shaky ground I can't save us, why Atlantis, oh no We built 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
