Map Change Lyrics
Am I the only one that saw the sun burn out?
The locusts keep their rhythm
My watch is broken down
I wake up and take on water, sink to the peak of despair
What I need is a cigarette
No more prayersThe planets unaligned
We are saints without a shrine
A storm comes and the city's abandoned
The ship is going down with the captainI am the man that sank Atlantis
The bottom is not the lowest we get
Further down still the dark's absolute
Further down than that, it's only me and youI assure you that hell is not a myth
We both vacation there
Hell is not a myth
We spend each winter there
No one can prepareA storm comes and the city's abandoned
The ship is going down with the captainI am the man that sank Atlantis
The bottom is not the lowest we get
I thought I knew the best part of the secret:
The truth is the thing we forgetThe glory I had witnessed was just a sleight of hand
These hearts cannot be salvaged, these bones cannot withstand
I have either been forgotten or I was never seen
Now I'm in the negative space betweenI've weighed down the earth
Through the stars to the pavement
I've weighed down the earth
No use trying to save it
I've weighed down the earth
Through the stars to the pavement
I've weighed down the earth
Not sure I can take itI've fallen out of frame
A strangled, distant flameClenched in the jaws of anguish are only godless men
Chaos is drawn to silence like life is drawn to death
The dusk is so much clearer than the dawn had ever been
I'm a ghost, and yet I've weighed down the earth
Through the stars to the pavement
I've weighed down the earth
No use trying to save it
