Atlas Songtext
von Wicked Ways

The weight of the world is dragging me down
Sometimes I feel like I might drown
Chasing a tomorrow that will never come
Pushing and fighting until I′ve gone numb
Even though I'm far from alone
Can′t help but feel
This burden is my own


From a young age always wanted to be the best
But was never taught how to handle what's in my chest
Bottled it up, lied to myself
Locked it away in my own personal hell
Let the pressure build till it wouldn't hold
Why have I become so cold?
Constantly turned away help
Convinced I could do it by myself
No matter what I do or achieve
I still think that it will never be enough for me

The weight of the world is dragging me down
Sometimes I feel like I might drown
Chasing a tomorrow that will never come
Pushing and fighting until I′ve gone numb
Even though I′m far from alone
Can't help but feel
This burden is my own

I′m walking away, I'm getting out
This weight will no longer hold me down
I′m walking away, I'm getting out
This weight will no longer hold me down
I′m walking away, I'm getting out
This weight will no longer hold me down
