Shinedown - Atmosphere lyrics

[Verse 1] Once I had a halo, but then it caught on fire Once I knew a good man, but he turned into a liar Once I saw a blind man, still looking for his eyes Once I met a ba*tard, who watched his father die [Pre-Chorus] And now, I'll tell you how I know 'em all [Chorus] I'm looking down on the atmosphere I took my number and I waited in line I'm not frail from the exposure I'm taking pictures with my mind I'm looking down on the atmosphere I took my number and I waited in line I'm not frail from the exposure I'm taking pictures with my mind [Verse 2] Once I met a leader, born from genocide Once I knew a preacher, to his faith he said goodbye Once I met a good girl, who shows her face no more It's hard to learn your lesson, when you become the whole world's who*e [Pre-Chorus] And now, I'll tell you how I know 'em all [Chorus] I'm looking down on the atmosphere I took my number and I waited in line I'm not frail from the exposure I'm taking pictures with my mind I'm looking down on the atmosphere I took my number and I waited in line I'm not frail from the exposure I'm taking pictures with my mind Looking down the atmosphere Looking down the atmosphere I know 'em all [Pre-Chorus] And now, I'll tell you how I know 'em all [Outro] Looking down on the atmosphere Looking down on the atmosphere I took my number and I waited in line I'm looking down on the atmosphere
