All I Want

Weightlessness is all I feel 
As my legs hang off the edge
White knuckles as I hold onto life
Understanding is easy
For so many need my help
Through the tough times
I create a light in their darkness

For me to settle into my own once again
Greeting me like an old friend
Those in the dark greet me
Unable to percieve the light
Which resides in me

As my light burns for others 
Damp ashes remain for me
Every piece I give
I never receive in return

Heavy is my head 
Perched is the crown of the broken
My shoulders carry a thousand worlds
When they cry out
All I hear is Atlas
Condemned to endure another world

A little push
That's all I need
That's all I want
