Atlas lyrics

I'm a thousand people

from day to day.

We are all air born1 

without ground control.

I call my name in the maelstrom.

I'm not giving in,

so don't you give in.

I'll be your Atlas

and carry our world.

But I guess

I won't save the world today.

I'm just trying to survive

and perhaps I'll dream again.

But I will find my cross

and I will take us home.

But I guess

I won't save the world today.

I'm a thousand people

from day to day,

blues and so untitled

on the road to where

I'm losing my name in the maelstrom.

But I'm not giving in,

so don't you give in.

I'll be your Atlas

and carry us home.

But I guess

I won't save your world today.

But I guess

I won't save the world today.

I'm just trying to survive

and perhaps I'll dream again.

But I will find my cross

and I will take us home.

But I guess

I won't save the world today.

I'm just trying to survive

and perhaps I'll dream again.

But I will find my cross

and I will take us home.

But I guess

I won't save the world today.

1. The official lyrics have this written as 'air born,' but I'm not sure what this would mean. They may have meant 'airborne' (in the air) or they may have been trying to make a new word that means 'born in the air,' which would have to be written 'air-born.'
