"Atlas" lyrics
"Atlas"
Change my last name, hope that I can move on
If I ditch that name, still can't escape the hate I came from
The anxiety and all these feelings that cloud up my mind
And waste all my time
I've been living with no progress in my own life
Spent my life searching for a scapegoat
But it was just me in the end
Carrying the happiness of those I love
And my back is giving in
Another late night shift, off at four AM
Passed out on the couch again
I'll watch the sun rise over the James
And tell myself I'm not as fucked up as my friends
Anxiety ruined my life, be it in my home or my own mind
Can't clear my head to take it all in
I couldn't find a single reason
At one point I had a chance
But anger moved in and shook these steady hands
Changed my plans
Put doubt behind every word
Ten years too late so I bite the curb
Spent my life searching for a scapegoat
But it was just me in the end
Carrying the happiness of those I love
And my back is giving in
To be the exception to the selfishness in this borrowed, broken world
If I can't change, I'm just another boy who's far too concerned
It's all I know
There ain't a man in me
No I ain't much to see
Spent my life searching for a scapegoat
But it was just me in the end
Carrying the happiness of those I love
And my back is giving in
To be the exception to the selfishness in this borrowed, broken world
If I can't change, I'm just another boy who's far too concerned

Of the life you crave
But the bed you made
Starts feeling like a hearse
It's a fitting curse

Just leaves you feeling worse
The writing gets painful...
Like Pacific - "Catch Your Eye" You're starting to surface
How is that good for me in the end?
When you smile it's worthless
And I hate all the ways in which you pretend
I tried to block you out, erase memories
I'm overshadowed...
Sleep On It - "Window" Always feeling better when I carry less
In the city with the biggest shoulders I confess
That I don't know where I'm going

To pick up right where we left off
These waves keep knocking down what we see
I can't tell if you're thinking of me still
We fell so hard
