Put your problems on my shoulders again I'll carry every secret you
don't tell your friends Give me all your heartbreak,
I'll make it disappear I'll smile through the shaking so you don't
have to fear
Call me when you're lonely Call me when you break Call me
when the whole world Is more than you can take I'll pick
up every piece I'll put you back in place But when I
start to crumble Who will recognize my face?
I've got the whole sky on my back
And nobody asks if I can carry that
I'm Atlas, I'm weeping Still holding the ceiling
Everybody's leaning on me While I'm losing my feeling
Put the world on my shoulders
I'll pretend that it's lighter
But who's gonna hold me When I can't hold myself any tighter?
I'm the therapist, the sister,
the shoulder and the guide The one who says “it's gonna be
okay” while falling apart inside I memorize your nightmares,
I know exactly what you need But every time I mention mine,
you change the subject and leave You hand me all your baggage
Like I'm built to carry more
Then wonder why I'm bleeding On the carpet by your door I
keep becoming useful
So nobody sees I'm scared
Maybe if I'm needed Someone finally will care
I've got the whole sky on my back
And nobody asks if I can carry that
I'm Atlas, I'm weeping Still holding the ceiling
Everybody's leaning on me While I'm losing my feeling
Put the world on my shoulders I'll pretend that it's lighter
But who's gonna hold me When I can't hold myself any tighter?
Take your hands off me
I don't wanna be your savior
Take your weight from me
I don't have another favor
I'm tired
I'm tired
I'm tired of being strong
If I put the world down Will everybody disappear?
If I stop answering
Will anybody come near?
I'm Atlas, I'm weeping
The ceiling is breaking
Everybody's reaching for me But nobody is staying
I've carried your oceans I've carried your fires I've carried your mountains
Until I could barely stand higher
I'm Atlas, I'm human I don't wanna be useful I don't wanna
be perfect I just wanna be held too
Let the sky fall
Let the mountains move For once in my life
I have nothing left to prove.
