PARKWAY DRIVE

- Atlas Lyrics

My life is a weathered down shipwreck
Splitting at the seams, held together by memories and
dreams
Every face I have seen, a stitch on my mind
On a shadow of a dream

And my heart is its cargo, a worn out old thing
Been dragged around this rock more times than you’d
believe
To the east I call home
But to the west, she is calling
From the north, to the south
Forever I’m drifting away
With more hope than fear
Put your head to my chest and you will hear
The sound of it beating
Is the sound of love leaving
The sound of it beating
Is the sound of the emptiness flooding in

Flooding in
It’s the sound of the emptiness flooding in

And my life, it aches
And my heart, it breaks
And I just can’t shake the feeling all I am is sinking
While one thousand eyes stare back at me
But the ones that I’d die for are the ones I can’t see

Flooding in

It’s the sound of the emptiness

What is the meaning behind Atlas lyrics?


When it comes to the meaning of the lyrics, Parkway Drive's Atlas uses the imagery of an old shipwreck and a heartbeat to express the struggle of keeping oneself intact during an emotional storm and the sensation of love fading away. Atlas lyrics mainly depict heartbreak, angst, despair, contemplation and solitude. But at the same time, the song emphasizes the importance of existential struggle, emotional turmoil, search for meaning and isolation and the desire to be united. The lyrics reveal themes of emotional suffering, despair and a feeling of drifting and losing, which might be very strong for younger listeners. The tone is adult and meditative, with no graphic content, but the emotional burdens and metaphors of 'drowning' and 'anxiety invading' imply a rating that strongly recommends parental supervision for kids under 13.
