Translation

Atlas

I have sand in my pockets and wind in my hair
The hope that I had is attached well
I have to move mountains, my coat is heavy because of that
I had caught water in the cup of my hands
I brought it to the sea, I swam back to land
Until bit by bit the coastline changes
 
You said that it was over, called me your atlas
Sorry that I'm still carrying you on my hands
You're acting like it's nothing, I gave too much, but fuck that
God, you're complex, but I like that
So I sell my things, build houses of cardboard
The price that I'm paying to think that it's possible
I knew that it was heavy, not that it was untrue
Your world on my shoulders, never the other way around
Never the other way around
 
(Ah, ah)
Never the other way around
(Ah, ah)
 
You had a huge burden, you didn't know I was there
Pulled me through mud, then
I asked what was on your chest, is there enough room for me there?
I knew that it would be alright, then the moment was gone
 
You said that it was over, called me your atlas
Sorry that I'm still carrying you on my hands
You're acting like it's nothing, I gave too much, but fuck that
God, you're complex, but I like that
So I sell my things, build houses of cardboard
The price that I'm paying to think that it's possible
I knew that it was heavy, not that it was untrue
Your world on my shoulders, never the other way around
Never the other way around
 
Looking back I wish I could burn our weeks in a ritual fire
Too much to ask?
Looking back they were unstable weeks, I would break both my legs
If you asked me to
 
But you said that it was over, called me your atlas
Sorry that I'm still carrying you on my hands
You're acting like it's nothing, I gave too much, but fuck that
God, you're complex, but I like that
So I sell my things, build houses of cardboard
The price that I'm paying to think that it's possible
I knew that it was heavy, not that it was untrue
Your world on my shoulders, never the other way around
Never the other way around
