[Verse 2]
        
I'm not bleedi

ng tonight
        
In the shadow 

of truncheons 

with smoke in 

my eyes
             
You will close

around
             
And the whole 

              
institution is

              
 rigged and th

              
e ship's going

  
 down

[Chorus]
 
 I'm cool to l

et Atlas drown
             
Galt, you can 


shake
             
You can cry, y

        
ou can quake
             
You can rot in

       
 your sleep
            
You can shrug,

         
 you can weep
              
And I'll watch

         
 as you bleed

[Instrumental]
   
   

[Verse 3]
             
Hey, you jackb

To you bells i

And we'll spit

        
 on his grave

[Instrumental]

   
   

[Verse 4]
        
In the heart o

f redemption, 

there's some f

urious song
         
And the herd i

s no place for

 the brave and

 the strong
             
But I bear no 

              
contempt for t

              
he ones who ju

          
st want to bel

ong
             
And these chos

              
en whites are 

 
anaemic and sm

all
             
And are truly 

             
the lowliest s


heep of them a

ll
             
And their emin

              
ence is fixed 

            
upon things we

              
 could burn in

    
 one go

[Outro]
              
I'mma let Atla

           
s fall
              
I'mma watch At
