these boundless objectives
where will they take me?
am I really steering this ship
is it even a ship?
existence is limitless
equal parts liberating and crushing
maybe we are all Atlas
the weight of the world a daily burden
tell me how
I'll do anything
how did you escape it?
tell me the secret to the radiance of your smile
the cadence of your laugh
the way you dance through life
how did you escape?
I'd love to know
I bet Atlas would too
one night she whispers
she guides me by the light of the fire
there is no escape my dear
only the strength to dance despite
Despite
