Atlas Falls Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The push is always part of us
And gravity's never a friend
Deciding on who we can trust
And finding our way to crescendo, to the unknown
[Verse 2]
We'll never make it outside
'Less we unlock the past and release
The future that we've left to die
For too long we've taken placebos
[Pre-Chorus]
But the unknown is awakening
[Chorus]
Don't give up now
There's already so much at stake
If Atlas falls
I'll rise up and carry us all the way
[Verse 3]
No, we can never look back
Return to the salt and the sea
The quiet is only a trap
And I will not take the placebos
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause the unknown is awakening
But I will crescendo
[Chorus]
Don't give up now
There's already so much at stake
If Atlas falls
I'll rise up and carry us all the way
It won't pull me down
The weight of impossible days
I'll stand tall
I'll rise up and carry us all the way
[Bridge]
Keep moving forward now
Keep your head above the clouds
I'm right with you, I will lift you
Just hold on
[Chorus]
Don't give up now
There's already so much at stake
If Atlas falls
I'll rise up and carry us all the way
It won't pull me down (Moving forward now)
The weight of impossible days (Keep your head above the clouds)
I'll stand tall (I'm right with you, I will lift you, just hold on)
I'll rise up and carry us all the way
[Outro]
I'll carry us all the way
(Keep moving forward now)

Brent Smith:
During the writing and recording of the ‘Amaryllis’ album, there was a song that meant a great deal to me and the band titled Atlas Falls. Although the song did not make the album, I always felt that one day the world would hear it… It has never been more clear to me than right now, th...
