Songtext Atlas Coheed And Cambria

Atlas

We carried on, unnoticed,
Thinking that all dreams were ours for the taking.
And now, dear love,
We've found ourselves back at the start of it all,
So scarred and 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 half.
Now on your mark, get set, clock starts to count.
Cause boy everything's about to go down.

So sleep tight, little Atlas.
Cause 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.

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.

So sleep tight, little Atlas.
Cause 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.
The love that's guiding him home, oh oh oh. [x3]
I'll be home, oh oh oh.

So sleep tight, little Atlas.
Cause 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.
Cause when your daddy goes off [x2]
You'll be the weight of his anchor.
The love that is guiding him home.

There's no running away from what's 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.
Cause 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?
Give us the man that you've been hiding.
Cause 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.
