You treat the world Like it’s all in your hands Struggle to the very end Undo your chaotic control Martyr of pleasing Different faces There is no light Behind that door Stop seeking someone To blame for Atlas You carry the world On your hands Atlas What’s your meaning Of love? Cancer, deceit, turmoil This prison you’ve built Within me These walls are unescapable There’s only sound
Around me At least what I’ve Been hoping for I hear the voices At least they make Me sleep at night But when I hear nothing I prepare to die Atlas Back and forth And back and forth Thoughts are burden Hard as steel Back and forth And back and forth Thoughts are fragile Atlas You brought me To the ground While you’ve carried The world On your hands Atlas
