Atlas, Rise!
METALLICA · Hardwired... To Self-Destruct 2016 · Track 02 of 16
Written by James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich
Bitterness and burden Curses rest on thee Solitaire and sorrow All Eternity
Save the Earth and claim perfection Deem the mass and blame rejection Hold the pose, reign perception Grudges break your back
All you bear All you carry All you bear Place it right on, right on me
Die as you suffer in vain Own all the grief and the pain Die as you hold up the skies Atlas, Rise!
How does it feel on your own? Bound by the world all alone Crushed under heavy skies Atlas, Rise!
Crucify and witness Circling the sun Bastardize and ruin What have you become?
Blame the world, and blame your maker Wish 'em to the undertaker Crown yourself the other savior So you carry on
All you bear All you carry All you bear Place it right on, right on me
Die as you suffer in vain Own all the grief and the pain Die as you hold up the skies Atlas, Rise!
How does it feel on your own? Bound by the world all alone Crushed under heavy skies Crushed under heavy skies Atlas, Rise!
Masquerade as maker Heavy is the crown Beaten down and broken Drama wears you down
Overload, the martyr stumbles Hit the ground and heaven crumbles All alone, the fear shall humble Swallow all your pride
All you bear All you carry All you bear Place it right on, right on me
Die as you suffer in vain Own all the grief and the pain Die as you hold up the skies Atlas, Rise!
How does it feel on your own? Bound by the world all alone Crushed under heavy skies Crushed under heavy skies Atlas, Rise!
