Into the Atlantic

This territory was the world that we live in
And it's said the undertow is grim
But now it's time to swim

We're going into the Atlantic
Into the Atlantic
You know, we're going down

Back in the day when they used to hunt for witches
They'd need to see if they'd float, or they would drown
Before they burnt them down

We're going into the Atlantic
Into the Atlantic
You see, we're going down

Bodies in suits with feet dipped in cement
Raw sewage and seagull excrement
Exploding mines and fishing lines
And rusty bits of tin (titanic)

We're going into the Atlantic
Into the Atlantic
You see, we're going down

As soon as you put your foot in the water
Your descent has started
The bulk of the bottom is uncharted

But in places, there's lava flowing
Treasure hunters armed with their tools
Treasure hunters looking for jewels

You try to be easy going
But you may just wanna fly
But you're so low down
You can't even see the sky
Just a goldfish swimming by

So here's a word to yourself, or someone like you
You gotta learn to take it on the chin
Take your towel and throw it in

It's going into the Atlantic (into the Atlantic)
Into the Atlantic (into the Atlantic)
You know, we're going down

And when it's time to baptize your own baby
Never mind that dorsal fin
And throw the little morsel in

Into the Atlantic (into the Atlantic)
It's going into the Atlantic (into the Atlantic)
Your baby's going down

Into the Atlantic
Into the Atlantic
Your baby's gonna drown

Into the Atlantic (into the Atlantic)
You're going into the Atlantic (into the Atlantic)
You're going down
