Words of the Desperate

It's crushing
The weight is crushing
It's crushing you and me
These are the words of the desperate

With every single moment that we waste, we're given a chance to
Make use of all we forfeit to disgrace, but I won't give up on you
No I won't give up on you
So don't give up on yourself cause

What's killing me is watching you kill yourself everyday on repeat
This cycle never ends, it only stops just to start over again and again
And I know you're trying your best to pull yourself up and find your feet
But the ground keeps slipping away
It's crushing, the weight is crushing you and me

You can't turn it back, you can't turn back the hands of time
But your face is not intertwined with the past
Just keep pushing forward
You cannot turn it back
So quit staring in the rear view like the road before you is it's mirrored reflection

What's killing me is watching you kill yourself everyday on repeat
This cycle never ends, it only stops just to start over again and again
And I know you're trying your best to pull yourself up and find your feet
But the ground keeps slipping away
It's crushing, the weight is crushing you and me

You don't have to find God but you need to find something, some resemblance of peace
It's not the details that matter, it's not blind faith, this is belief
That things will get better trust me I've lived at the bottom with you
And when I finally fought my way to the top, I found out that the waves keep crashing

With the weight of the world stabbing us in the back, Atlas would you let us take a breath
With the weight of the world stabbing us in the back, Atlas would you let us take a breath
With the weight of the world stabbing us in the back, Atlas would you let us take a breath
With the weight of the world stabbing us in the back, Atlas would you let us take a breath
