Shut the World Out - Atlas Losing Grip

I was very insecure as a kid but I found a place

Inside myself where nobody could bully me, a haven

From that small-town mentality.

A state of mind where

My emotions all were, and still are, something I didn’t

Need to be ashamed of.

I still go to that place every

Day and shut the world out, just shut it all out.

It’s what

Keeps me going on when I feel I’m not so strong at all

It’s what keeps me holding on when I’m weak enough to

Fall.

Music lights a spark in me, finds the place where I

Can express myself and be heard.

And when I’m there I

Can stay for hours
