Overcame with the weight of a thousand earths    Forced to live the life of atlas's curse    I am the warrior with a broken sword    A slave at the feet of his lord    There's no chance I'll ever be relieved    Because as men before me I have been deceived    Into believing, I'll be rewarded for all of my strain    But as soon hope emerges the wind blows it away again    The mirage; blurring my sight and senses    The mirage; breaking my spine and spirit    Falling to my knees, I'm left to crawl    Choking, sinking, coughing up salt    The truth inside of me arrives like a squall    The realization it's all my fault
