the atlantic was born today and i'll tell you how:

the clouds above opened up and let it out.

 i was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere

 when the water filled every hole.

 and thousands upon thousands made an ocean,

 making islands where no island should go.

oh no.

those people were overjoyed; they took to their boats.

i thought it less like a lake and more like a moat.

 the rhythm of my footsteps crossing flood lands to your door have been

silenced forever more.

 the distance is quite simply much too far for me to row

 it seems farther than ever before

oh no.

i need you so much closer (4x)

i need you so much closer (4x)

just play around with it on the ending part
