From Meric: “The Atlantic” is a song about the limitations of what you can see if you don’t surround yourself with people that challenge you. In the first couple years of knowing my partner, the Atlantic ocean was literally between us, and now when we disagree and see things very differently it can...
The Atlantic Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You've gone off into battle
With nothing but blistering rage
Was looking for something to rattle
Got nowhere beyond this cage
My eyes can't see the handle
It's fallen off of the door
I know that it's just a shadow
Of something that came before
[Pre-Chorus]
I see right through this mantle
I still believe in you
I see right through this mantle
I still believe the distance between
[Chorus]
As you were standing there across
The Atlantic Ocean air
We couldn't find a way across
The Atlantic Ocean air
[Verse 2]
I'm talkin' low but I'm thinkin' loud
Should I get away from this?
But I see you there and it gives me pause
I know that I went too quit
[Pre-Chorus]
Right away, I see right through this mantle
I still believe in you
I see right through this mantle
I still believe the distance between
[Chorus]
As you were standing there across
The Atlantic Ocean air
We couldn't find a way across
The Atlantic Ocean air
The Atlantic Ocean
[Outro]
I've always seen right through this
I've always seen right through this
(I know it's about to change, but I don't think I can't see it through) I've always seen right through this
(The world's about to change but I don't think I can't feel it) I've always seen right through this
(I know it's about to change, but I don't think I can't see it through) I've always seen right through this
(The world's about to change but I don't think I can't feel it) I've always seen right through this

What did The Dodos say about "The Atlantic"?
The first version of this song felt like a math problem I couldn’t solve, there was something about the key change on the pre-chorus that never felt right. I think I prefer this version, at least it felt like I figured it out this time around, but there are definitely those in my inner circle who pr...
