This is my attempt to come to terms with a toxic relationship. feedback is appreciated! |
| Atlas, my love You're straining Straining against the weight of the world Gasping for breath Scrambling for purchase Soles slowly sliding from your control Atlas, my love I hate to see you suffer Suffering with the weight of the world You carry burdens Burdens vivid Unimaginable to the world Atlas, my love I could do it you know... I could bear the weight of the world Let you roam free Free to adventure Free from the weight of your world Atlas, my love I'll take your burden That you may see the rest of the world I'll carry that cross I'll lighten your load The load of the weight of the world Just promise, my love To live free, free from burden The burden of the weight of the world I'll take your place I'll be your lighthouse The light at the edge of the world ... Come back to me, my love My hope, at this edge of the world We can share this burden Together, stronger than we ever were apart If you'd return, my love Come and share this burden This burden of the weight of the world |
