Atlas Songtext
von Redscale

Touched by the flame
Molded and shaped by the weight of the world
Hands on the wheel, anchored entangled in chains
Drifting with billowing sails
Flow through the seabed submerged in the waves
Blind to celestial shapes, the distant light growing faint

Image made of clay, carve your name in the stone
Fitting under strain, we were cast in the mold
Crawling out of caves, find our place in the world
Statues line the way
Leading to the unknown

Cutting the chord, draw in the breath let the ghost fill your frame
Shovel the dirt from your grave, burning the earth in your wake
In the dead of the night, far above you the stars are unveiled
By the darkness revealed, throwing your weight in the chains


Image made of clay, carve your name in the stone
Fitting under strain, we were cast in the mold
Crawling out of caves, find our place in the world
Statues line the way
We are walking alone

Fettered and bound by the chains
Carry the weight of the world
Cracking the mold from the strain
Seeing the shape in the stone

So heavy this load, a burden on your name
So heavy this load, a burden on your name
Ghost buried in stone, the hammer forms your fate
Ghost buried in stone, the hammer forms your fate
Forms your fate

Shedding the weight of the world
Freeing this corpse from the chains

Image made of clay, carve your name in the stone
Fitting under strain, we were cast in the mold
Crawling out of caves, find our place in the world
Statues line the way
Marble hands guide you home
