Jadias - Atlantis Lyrics

Once, I had this dream that I was whole, and the whole world was at my feet. But now I'm grown, and now I know, that all it takes is one mistake. It's to be born in peasant clothes with blistered hands and those I serve. But I am strong for what I am, a servant to my love.
Why am I forced to find a man whom I won't love? All just because my father's wish is to control my vibrant heart, my future soul. I've made my choice to wander off the path that leads away from you, my love.
We must take care to keep this in the shade, for if they know what we have they'll take it all away. But the whole world is distant and the water's getting high. I'll tell them that I'll stay with you, and we can live before we die. The ships are setting sail, you must be on your way. My fate lies with the island, and I cannot let you stay. Go on my love.
The water may rush in, but it will not wash away, the feelings that I have for you, are anchored here at bay. My fate lies here with you, you're everything I know and the beaches and the oceans, every bit of it is home. I choose to stay with you, now keep me in your hands. We'll wash away together like pebbles in the sand.
And the sea rushes in to wash us away, away from the world where we cannot stay. The waves crash down, and the borders are lost. Buildings are crumbled and vessels are tossed. Lives are forgotten, blue becomes the face. Sinking to the bottom, a city's laid to waste. The waves crash down to wipe us off the earth. God help us all, we're helplessly submerged.
Open your hand, hold on to this little piece of string. Now wrap it tight, the closest thing that I have to a ring. Let us think of this day as the biggest wedding of all time. Don't cry, hold on, it's alright.
