On an island in the middle of the ocean

A mighty civilization grew

Riches beyond imagination

Skies and water so blue

But fate dealt its hand

And all of their happiness blinded them

All of their power and all of its uses

And all of the time that they spent

Building temples to their gods

How could they know

They they would soon be destroying them

Their rulers and all of their peasants

Fought hard to conquer the world

Crystals with magical powers

And knowledge to harness their burn

But fate dealt its hand and

All of their happiness ended

The earth did move; volcanoes erupted

And without warning their island sank into the ocean

Total destruction; now when

You hear the name of Atlantis

Know that their story is true
