atlas, rise!

bitterness and burden

curses rest on thee

solitaire and sorrow

all eternity

save the earth and claim perfection

deem the mass and blame rejection

hold the pose

reign perception

grudges break your back

all you bear

all you carry

all you bear

place it right on

right on me

die as you suffer in vain

own all the grief and the pain

die as you hold up the skies

atlas

rise!

how does it feel on your own?

bound by the world all alone

crushed under heavy skies

atlas

rise!

crucify and witness

circling the sun

bastardize and ruin

what have you become?

blame the world

and blame your maker

wish 'em to the undertaker

crown yourself the other savior

so you carry on

all you bear

all you carry

all you bear

place it right on

right on me

die as you suffer in vain

own all the grief and the pain

die as you hold up the skies

atlas

rise!

how does it feel on your own?

bound by the world all alone

crushed under heavy skies

crushed under heavy skies

atlas

rise!

masquerade as maker

heavy is the crown

beaten down and broken

drama wears you down

overload

the martyr stumbles

hit the ground and heaven crumbles

all alone

the fear shall humble

swallow all your pride

all you bear

all you carry

all you bear

place it right on

right on me

die as you suffer in vain

own all the grief and the pain

die as you hold up the skies

atlas

rise!

how does it feel on your own?

bound by the world all alone

crushed under heavy skies

crushed under heavy skies

atlas

rise!
