Atlantic Songtext

Atlantic Songtext
Yes, this one time you′ve been bold
But don't you get a big head
Remind yourself what you′ve been told
Don't you get carried away
You were never, ever good enough
Why don't you try harder?
If you can understand all the patterns
That redound to your detriment
If you can understand all the patterns
Why do you keep repeating them?
High, high defeatism
High, high defeatism
Now I see you in another light
Now I see you in another light
Immerse in the dark that you chose to surround you
You′re so hurt and so weak, and you′re so damn afraid of the truth
And you chew on your pain
By denying the past and begriming what used to be your nest
You're filled to the brim with a guilt
That you can′t come to terms with
High, high defeatism
High, high defeatism
Now I see you in another light
How can you say that you loved me
When all you seek is revenge?
How can you say that you loved me
When all you seek is retaliation?
How can you say that you loved me
When all you seek is revenge?
How can you say that you loved me
When all you seek is retaliation?
Son, you'll need a radical change
Son, you deserve something better than this
Son, you′re in need of a tactical switch in defence
Son, you'll need a radical change
Son, you deserve something better than this
Son, you′re in need of a tactical switch in defence
Son, you'll need a radical change
For something better than this
But now you're daydreaming
Son, you′ll need a radical change
For something better than this
But now you′re daydreaming
Here comes the dark that you chose to be your playground
It's not so hard, with eyes closed, to find your way around
Enter the void of your own imagination
Harvest the fruits of years of procrastination
But now, your daydream is -
Over
But don't you get a big head
Remind yourself what you′ve been told
Don't you get carried away
You were never, ever good enough
Why don't you try harder?
If you can understand all the patterns
That redound to your detriment
If you can understand all the patterns
Why do you keep repeating them?
High, high defeatism
High, high defeatism
Now I see you in another light
Now I see you in another light
Immerse in the dark that you chose to surround you
You′re so hurt and so weak, and you′re so damn afraid of the truth
And you chew on your pain
By denying the past and begriming what used to be your nest
You're filled to the brim with a guilt
That you can′t come to terms with
High, high defeatism
High, high defeatism
Now I see you in another light
How can you say that you loved me
When all you seek is revenge?
How can you say that you loved me
When all you seek is retaliation?
How can you say that you loved me
When all you seek is revenge?
How can you say that you loved me
When all you seek is retaliation?
Son, you'll need a radical change
Son, you deserve something better than this
Son, you′re in need of a tactical switch in defence
Son, you'll need a radical change
Son, you deserve something better than this
Son, you′re in need of a tactical switch in defence
Son, you'll need a radical change
For something better than this
But now you're daydreaming
Son, you′ll need a radical change
For something better than this
But now you′re daydreaming
Here comes the dark that you chose to be your playground
It's not so hard, with eyes closed, to find your way around
Enter the void of your own imagination
Harvest the fruits of years of procrastination
But now, your daydream is -
Over
