Lyrics Atlas: Nine - Sleeping At Last

Atlas: Nine

Who am I to say
What any of this means
I have been sleep walking
Since I was fourteen
Now as I write my song
I retrace my steps
Honestly it’s easier
To let myself forget
Still I check my vital signs
Choked up I realize
I’ve been less than half myself
For more than half my life
Wake up
Fall in love again
Wage war on gravity
There’s so much worth fighting for, you’ll see
Another domino falls, either way
It looks like empathy
To understand all sides
But I’m just trying to
Find myself through
Someone else’s eyes
So show me what to do
To restart this heart of mine
How do I forgive myself
For losing so much time
Wake up
Roll up your sleeves
There’s a chain reaction in your heart
Muscle memory, remembering who you are
Stand up and fall in love, again and again and again
Wage war on gravity
There’s so much worth fighting for, you’ll see
Another domino falls
And another domino falls
A little at a time
I feel more alive
I’ll let the scale tip
Feel all of it
It’s uncomfortable, but right
And we were born to try
To see each other through
To know and love ourselves, and others well
It’s the most difficult and meaningful work we’ll ever do
