Atlas Lyrics by Down I Go

Gods

2011

Holding the earth on my shoulders forever
A punishment to separate, to profit
When we were drawn down there are others
Riding from their mountain
Olympians, you've slit the throat of titans

Stuck in the air, there he is
Real as a million evers
I'll make you hold up the sky
So let the jump back for days

Well, how he cleaved, asked me for golden apples
I saw the chance to watch over my burden
Hе fooled me with a single trick
I know I can't do it, but thеre's a diviner

Black at the end of the eyes
Brilliance in the yellow flowers
I'll make me moon up the sky
So long but no time for death

Punish

Deceived, implanted by breaking pain
Never relieved, never stand up straight again
Punished, deceived, can hardly take the strain
Never relieved

Unburdened, these shoulders give respite
Have mercy, just 'cause I betrayed and defected
Hardest with the weight of a planet
I'm burdened, please show less
Give respite, have mercy
Just 'cause I'm betrayed and defended
But it's with the weight of a planet
