Facing Atlas

I came to take you back to where you came from

But that’s not what you want

I fought so hard for you, for us, for our life here

But now you need to go

But now you need to go

The world is full of **** and full of evil

But there you stand

You looked at me and begged me for some mercy

But I, I couldn’t take your hand

So I came to take you back to where you came from

But you see, that’s not what I want

The foolish hope of great eternal beauty

This **** breaks my heart

Can’t we just run away

It’s no fun to stay

Can’t we just break free from ourselves?

Deep in my crumbled chest

Kindness was at rest

Your hand reached out and changed my soul
