Atlas lay your burden down
The skies will hold themselves tonight
Let the stars shower glitter
and the moon fade away
Come and lower your arms
Release the clouds that are heavy with rain
and lift the blanket of night from your shoulders
Come and rest your head against my chest tonight
Atlas lay your burden down
Tonight the world will bear the weight
and the heavens will remain until tomorrow
Come to me and close your eyes
Let the skies fall tonight
and gaze at the beauty of your burden
Watch the glint of the suns and the shine of the moons
lost in the darkness of the endless skies above
Atlas lay your burden down
lest the weight become too much
For if the skies crush you down tonight
who will take up the weight in the morning?
Lay beside me now
and rest your back against the grass
look at all you have been holding
with the strength of your will and your body
Rest with me now
lower your hands and fold your knees
dream of the earth solid beneath your feet
and the oceans will sing you to sleep in my arms
Atlas Telamon, ever enduring, take up your burden now
The sun is awake and the skies are calling your name
It is time to bear the weight again
But you are all the more stronger now beside me
