Captain Nobody he saw the elephant
He tried to snuff it but candles like that stay lit
Up goes the looking glass
Look out world the future passes
Alibis won't save us now
Nobody listens
Nobody cares
Happened all too quickly
Happened all too fast
He cried out when she fell across the frightened creature's path
In order to control his grief and make a plea at sanity
There is no word as accident in his vocabulary
“Atlantica” is under fire
Captain Nobody has vengeance on his widowed brain
He turned his tide of panic
Nobody looks away
Up comes his ire and bile
Nobody hides away
Down where the tears surround him
Nobody stakes his claim
Happened all too quickly
Happened all too fast
He cried out when she fell across the charging monster's path
In order to avenge his love and for his child never born
His wishing well is deep and red with iron clad and hammerhead
Captain Nobody he fought the elementals
He tried to snuff us out but candles like us work it out
Down goes the serpentine
Look below the Captain has gone
Memories won't save him now
Memories cannot save him at all
Look out world
Captain Nobody he saw the elephant
He tried to snuff it out but candles like that stay lit
Up goes the looking glass
Look out world the future passes
Alibis won’t save us now
Nobody listens
Nobody cares
Happened all too quickly
Happened all too fast
He cried out when she fell across the charging monster's path
In order to avenge his love and for his child never born
His wishing well is deep and red with iron clad and hammerhead
Happened all too quickly
Happened all too fast
He cried out when she fell across the line of their defense
In order to control his grief and make a claw at sanity
There is no word as accident
There is no word as accident
“Atlantica” is under fire
Her beauty fell now from hell he chips away

12 years later and I finally buy it. One album that cemented a whole universe and aesthetic during those 12 years.
This album is of a specific importance to me, and the person behind the group are adorable. DJ FACT 5.0/Barbary Ghost... thanks you very much for this creation and all the numerous others, for the talks, for the remix, for Vernian Process. Your name will forever be remembered in the musical scene, at least for me. Neronn

Sweden's Catharina Jaunviksna, aka Badlands, creates gently glowing '80s-inspired pop - think of it as new wave in pastel rather than neon. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 2, 2021
Simple story (when you break it down), brilliantly told and with awesome soundtrack :D
I've listened to this countless times since it came out, it never occurred to me to check if it's on bandcamp :) mikica1986
