Atlantis sopposedly suffered its end at the hands of the Greek God Zeus, who flooded it because of the greed and pride of it's people. This song, as I see it, is applying the myth of Atlantis to the reality of todays society. Human greed is fueling global warming through polution which in turn will cause a rise of the worlds water levels. They are conveying the fact that this will bring an end to our perverbial Atlantis if you consider the consequences of our actions. ex. "that which gives life has power to take it right back. ing with the ice caps, we gotta push the tide back". 'that which gives life' is water. 'ing with the icecaps' refers to the greenhouse effect, and how it will soon have an effect on our daily lives.
