Surface Pressure |
| I’m the strong one, I’m not nervous |
| I’m as tough as the crust of the Earth is |
| I move mountains, I move churches |
| And I glow, 'cause I know what my worth is |
| I don’t ask how hard the work is |
| Got a rough, indestructible surface |
| Diamonds and platinum, I find 'em, I flatten 'em |
| I take what I’m handed, I break what’s demanded, but |
| Under the surface |
| I feel berserk as a tightrope walker in a three-ring circus |
| Under the surface |
| Was Hercules ever like, «Yo, I don’t wanna fight Cerberus»? |
| Under the surface |
| I’m pretty sure I’m worthless if I can’t be of service |
| A flaw or a crack, the straw in the stack |
| That breaks the camel’s back |
| What breaks the camel’s back? |
| It’s |
| Pressure like a drip, drip, drip, that’ll never stop, woah-oh |
| Pressure that’ll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, woah-oh-oh-oh |
| Give it to your sister, your sister’s older |
| Give her all the heavy things we can’t shoulder |
| Who am I if I can’t run with the ball? |
| If I fall to |
| Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won’t let go, woah-oh |
| Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it’s ready to blow, woah-oh-oh-oh |
| Give it to your sister, your sister’s stronger |
| See if she can hang on a little longer |
| Who am I if I can’t carry it all? |
| If I falter |
| Under the surface |
| I hide my nerves and it worsens, I worry somethin' is gonna hurt us |
| Under the surface |
| The ship doesn’t swerve — has it heard how big the iceberg is? |
| Under the surface |
| I think about my purpose, can I somehow preserve this? |
| Line up the dominoes, a light wind blows |
| You try to stop it topplin', but on and on it goes |
| But wait, if I could shake the crushing weight |
| Of expectations, would that free some room up for joy |
| Or relaxation, or simple pleasure? |
| Instead, we measure this growing pressure |
| Keeps growing, keep going, 'cause all we know is |
| Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that’ll never stop, woah-oh |
| Pressure that’ll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, woah-oh-oh-oh |
| Give it to your sister, it doesn’t hurt and |
| See if she can handle every family burden |
| Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks |
| No mistakes, just |
| Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won’t let go, woah-oh |
| Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it’s ready to blow, woah-oh-oh-oh |
| Give it to your sister and never wonder |
| If the same pressure would’ve pulled you under |
| Who am I if I don’t have what it takes? |
| No cracks, no breaks |
| No mistakes! |
| No pressure! |
