Atlas: Sorrow - Sleeping At Last

It feels like falling

It feels like rain

Like losing my balance

Again and again

It once was so easy

Breathe in breathe out

But at the foot of this mountain

I only see clouds

I feel out of focus

Or at least indisposed

As this strange weather pattern

Inside me takes hold

Each brave step forward

I take three steps behind

It's mind over matter

Matter over mind

Slowly then all at once

A single loose thread

And it all comes undone

Where there is light

A shadow appears

The cause and effect

When life interferes

The same rule applies

To goodness and grief

For in our great sorrow

We learn what joy means

I don't want to fight I don't want to fight it

I don't want to fight I don't want to fight it

I don't want to fight I don't want to fight it

But I will learn to fight I will learn to fight

'Til this pendulum finds equilibrium

Slowly then all at once

The dark clouds depart

And the damage is done

So pardon the dust

While this all settles in

With a broken heart

Transformation begins
