Atlas

Staring at the screen, hand in my hair I'm back in the office but my mind ain't here Got seven different meetings all in a line Lost my password for the fifteenth time Doesn't matter cause I'm in another place I'm right back to the end, back to our last embrace You were the strongest one I knew You did everything for us, you did all that you could do Out on the road, traffic's jammed Three lanes closed I thought I'll be damned I'm not in a hurry to get nowhere In my head I am right there Because I'm in another place I'm right back to the end, back to our last embrace Should've seen your back's against the wall Should've known eventually it'd fall, it would fall Atlas himself can't take the weight If the ground beneath him breaks away, breaks away Lying on the couch, news is on Two shot, one dead and a panda's born But it's all going right through my head I'm thinking what I shoulda said You were the strongest one I knew You did everything for us you did all that you could do Should've seen your back's against the wall Should've known eventually it'd fall, it would fall Atlas himself can't take the weight If the ground beneath him breaks away, breaks away Should've seen the cracks begin to form Maybe then we'd have the chance to brace before the storm But I know that wouldn't be your style We'd do anything just to have you stay a little while Should've seen your back's against the wall Should've known eventually it'd fall Atlas himself can't take the weight If the ground beneath him breaks away
