King Atlas Lyrics by To Elysium

Nightmare’s Nest

0

I defy the height of the world
In spite of the weight of my cross
Inspire myself, a fire-and-brimstone sermon
At a loss under Atlas' burden
Holding the globe like a damaged icon
My bones can't bear the load piling on
Comes a cropper. Ill at ease ever after
Mercy in chains
The plot is thickening, things changed in a way
The chances are sickening, evolution in a day
Does it matter how it ends when cards were dealt by hostile hands?
Endurance is the fancy that nothing is everlasting
The open sky unsettled by thunder
Killed in a crash like a bolt from the blue
The burden, concealed and playful, grows anew
Enemy mine... hate is the only enemy
Axis powers recede
The still point of the turning world stands still indeed
Things changed in a way, evolution in a day
We evolve away
