Atropos (Ἄτροπος) is one of the three goddesses of fate in ancient Greek mythology. She chooses the way each mortal dies and cuts the thread of their life. Her name means literally “unturning”, or “inflexible”.
Atropos is also the name of the planet explored in the 2021 PS5 game Returnal.
Don't look down below
We'd rather stay (We'd rather stay)
In a moment and pacified then see
That's how we do it
Don't say it's nothing more than a love like that
Gotta chase somebody
Yeah, isn't it funny how much better we seem to get along
When we're face-down in a place where we belong?
Where do we belong?
Where do we belong?
Pieces
Falling pieces
Falling pieces, I can feel thеm
Every time I close my еyes
I can feel them in my brain
Pieces
Falling pieces
Falling pieces, I can feel them
Every time I close my eyes
I can feel them fucking my mind!
There doesn't have to be a reason
What's the point of taking bits and pieces away, away
Ooh, from my high?
You can blame it on the seasons or
A lack of serotonin, constant needing
Don't look down below
We'd rather stay (Rather stay)
In a moment and pacified than bleed for eternity
Don't say it's nothing more than a love like that
Chase that fucking money
Yeah, isn't it funny how much better we seem to get off
When we're locked in with a superficial hole?
Where do we belong?
Where do we belong?
Now everybody sings the same old sad song
Where have we gone wrong?
There's broken bodies in the distance
But right now, broken brains are amidst us
Forever!
Where do we belong?
Where have we gone wrong?
Yeah!
A lack of body just caught in the middle
Some say "fuck it" when they're stuck in the middle
Some say "fuck it" when they're bleeding a little bit
And can't find the rhythm to get out of it
Get me fucking out of this mess
A lack of anybody
Just caught in the middle
The soul is sold
A lack of anybody
Just caught in the middle
The soul is sold
Some they pay, some they want it
We're caught in the middle
The soul is so empty!
Paid in full
Tear the hole, tear the hole
Inside your soul (This soul is so...)
EMPTY!
There's broken bodies in the distance
But right now, broken brains are amidst us
And you should all just surrender
A lack of body just caught in the middle
A lack of body just caught in the middle
Some say "fuck it" when they're bleeding a little bit
Paid in full
Tear the hole, tear the hole
Inside your soul
Feel it, feel it, feel it fucking my mind!
Paid in full
Tear the hole, tear the hole
Inside your soul
Tear it, tear it, tear it in your soul!
