Atlantis sind wir

You can't reach it by charter flight
The legendary land of fantasy
But cross it off your dream list
You can never, you can never
Can you never

You can invest billions in research
Searching for her in the cosmos
You will not discover the island anywhere
Except in you
Except in you

A star out of the orbit of eternal snow
On the Jungfraujoch
A flying swan over Lake Constance
For how much longer
A moment of love for hours
Space domination and the end of the world
Faith and Doubt Generosity and Greed
We are Atlantis
We are Atlantis
We are Atlantis
We are Atlantis

You can browse through atlases
Go deep-sea diving with Jacques Cousteau
Climbing the mountains with Reinhold Messner
You won't see it
You won't see it
You won't see it

You can rotate the globe around its axis
Until the picture of the world becomes completely blurred
See continents rise and sink
Until everything goes out
Until everything goes out

A blue planet in a shooting star fall
Who destroys himself
The evening prayer of a nightingale
Remains unheard
Around us is Brussels, within us is Beirut
Creation and blind rage for destruction
Devilish angel and divine beast
We are Atlantis
We are Atlantis
We are Atlantis
We are Atlantis

The streets of Vienna
The city park in May
The Mozart House
The rift through Berlin
The silent scream out into the world
A flight through space to the Moon and back
Really made true
The tangible dream of close-up happiness
On Christmas Eve
Greenpeace and terror
Peace and War
The language of weapons and that of music
Heaven and Hell
Today and here
We are Atlantis
We are Atlantis
We are Atlantis
We are Atlantis
