I feel this city revolve around me but the world is at a standstill Buildings shake in wake of these things For once all my words are escaping me
and I gasp for air, but my lungs aren't there
Cut off your ties and stand on your own In your skin that weathers the storm A place for your bones
I read it on your lips but my ears my ears disagree ..my ears disagree
Stand tall Hold up the sky, keep it from crashing. crashing crashing into me With my world on your back, you're my Atlas Keep it from crashing into crashing into me
With my world on your back Stand tall, you are my Atlas I read it on your lips but my ears my ears disagree And I know what lies between where the sun and the stars meet In a world that never let you begin The tides are pulling you out while gravity is pulling you down The tides are pulling you out while gravity is pulling you down
I know what lies between where the sun and the stars meet In a world that never let you begin
Stand tall Hold up the sky, keep it from crashing. crashing. crashing into me With my world on your back, you're my Atlas Keep it from crashing into, crashing into me Because the rain is heavy out here and its drowning me at sea With my world on your back, you're my Atlas
