Standing on the highest mount
The sky reaching out for support
Landing on my hands and shoulders
The crushing weight above to hold us

I am no hero
Yet you know my name
Next to zero
Me, betrail, yet no shame

And here I stand
Pain takes no end
And my punishment is this
By my side no Nemesis

My Brothers and Sisters
Are standing, turning their back
They are no longer Masters
Overruled by Zeus's pack

Kronos is sold
To the Underworld
They forgot about me
There is nothing else to see

Because I remain the same
As Atlas, the Insane
