Atlas

She’s got your atlas
And your life-sized globe
Resting easy in her palm
She’s left you breathless
You look around, don’t know
Where exactly you went wrong
Do you realize you can’t do it on your own?
Pull me up to your level just to push me off the edge of your throne
You made us a home
But you like living alone

So you just keep on running away
From everything you deem too safe
When all you really want is
Never to be haunted again
You’re gonna have to let somebody save your skin

You took your demons
And your life-sized fears
And hid them away from yourself
Thought you could keep them
But they’ve broken free
And now you find you’re so out your depth
And you have lost
But admit, you would never
Too afraid of what honesty costs
You’re tangled up inside
A textbook web of lies

So you just keep on running away
From everything you deem too safe
When all you really want is
Never to be haunted again
You’re gonna have to let somebody save your skin

So you just keep on running away
From everything you deem too safe
When all you really want is
Never to be haunted again
You’re gonna have to let somebody save your skin
