Achilles Lyrics by Kevin Atwater

Achilles

2025

[Verse 1]
\nAll the places
\nThat your hands are shaking, tracing through
\nFrom a body waiting to be used
\nTo a body wanting getting used to
\nYou can hold me
\nShow me off, but, oh, you never do
\nYou're scared of what I mean to you
\nHow they'll use it to be mean to you too
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI could tear them all down
\nWhy am I the one polite?
\nIt gets heavy being so light
\nI could make you cry now
\nI don't wanna prove them right
\nIt gets heavy being so light
\nAnd I don't wanna fight
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nAll the faces
\nSmiling bigger when you let them win
\nAnd you're smaller every timе you finish
\nBeating up and on yourself again
\nI wanna hold you
\nBut you shrink away so I do too
\nMy Achilles always bеnt and bruised
\nIt'll kill me when you let me lose you
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI can throw it back now
\nWhy am I the one polite?
\nIt gets heavy being so light
\nYou could make me cry now
\nI don't wanna prove you right
\nIt gets heavy being so light
\nAnd I don't wanna fight
\n
\n[Outro]
\n(Ah, ha, ha, ha)
\n(Ah, ha, ha, ha, woah)
\n(Woah, and I don't wanna, woah)
\n(Woah, woah, I don't wanna)
\n(Woah, I don't wanna)\n\n
