Atlas
By Claudio Sanchez(Coheed and Cambria)
[Verse 1]
We carried on, unnoticed, thinking that
All dreams were ours for the taking
Here now, dear love, we've found ourselves
Back at the start of it all. So starting incomplete
Only now I've come to this moment in my life
Bits and pieces to a puzzle, with no regrets
But if I had just one chance left, I'd hold onto her close
With what little confidence I have
And make no mistake, as your life's surely about to change
For the better. Now on your mark, get set, clock starts to
Count. Cuz boy everything's about to go down
[Chorus]
So sleep tight, little Atlas
Cuz when your daddy goes off, just you know
That you're the weight of his anchor
The love that is guiding him home
The love that's guiding him home.(oh oh oh's)
[Verse 2]
I've had my share of leaving this retreat, but never
Did it once feel anything like you, you see
And if there's one good thing that comes from my away
It's that you won't be anything like me
Oh, and so, better for it you will be
[Chorus]
So sleep tight, little Atlas
Cuz when your daddy goes off, just you know
That you're the weight of his anchor
The love that is guiding him home
The love that's guiding him home(x4)(oh oh oh's)
Boy, I'll be home
So sleep tight, little Atlas
Cuz when your daddy goes off, just you know
That you're the weight of his anchor
The love that is guiding him home
So sleep tight, little Atlas
Cuz when your daddy goes off(x2)
You'll be the weight of his anchor
The love that is guiding him home
[Bridge/Verse 3]
There's no running away from whats been done here
Will you sink with this ship or will you burn it down?
Now give us the man that you've been hiding
Cuz this is your, this is your life, this is your life now
There's no running away, there's no running away
Will you sink with this ship or, will, will you burn it down?
Where's the man that you've been hiding?
Cuz this is your, this this is, this is your life now
Oh, Oh your life now. This is your life. HUH! It's dad!
This is, this this this, this is your life now
