He has walked the path of the conqueror
He has crushed the dreams of many
But he came to realize that the path of a savior satisfied equally
He put aside his blackened soul, and wore the sign of penance
For the very first time in his life he gained someone’s trust and gave some back in return
I’ll give my life for you, lay all your pain upon me
For I am nothing but a mule, I’ll carry your burdens
I’ll give my life for you, lay all your pain upon me
For I am nothing but a mule, my name is Atlas
Atlas stands, carries the world, carries your pain on his shoulders
Once a myth, now turned to stone, carries your pain forever
He put aside his blackened soul, and wore the sign of penance
But he was betrayed by the very man he thought he was a friend
He gave his life for you, laid all your pain upon him
For he was nothing but a mule, carries the world forever
He gave his life for you, laid all your pain upon him
For he was nothing but a mule
Atlas stands, carries the world, carries your pain on his shoulders
Once a myth, now turned to stone, carries your pain forever
Atlas burns, carried the world, carried your lies on his shoulders
Once a myth, now turned to stone, hear him scream forever:
A curse for all the “friends” that let me down
A curse for all the “friends” that let me drown
A curse for all the men that let me down
A curse for all the men that let me drown
Let me down!
Atlas!
At last!
He has walked the path of the conqueror, he has crushed the dreams of many
But he came to realize that the path of a savior satisfied equally
He put aside his blackened soul, and wore the sign of penance
But he was betrayed by the very man he thought he was a friend
