Under Pressure

Pressure pushing down on me Pressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure -that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
-that's o.k.
It's the terror of knowing
What the world is about Watching some good friends Screaming 'Let me out'
Pray tomorrow -gets me higher
Pressure on people -people on streets
O.k. Chippin' around -kick my brains around the
These are the days it never rains but it pours
People on streets
People on streets
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about Watching some good friends Screaming 'Let me out'
Pray tomorrow -gets me higher high high
Pressure on people -people on streets
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn
Why -why -why ?
Love love love love love Insanity laughs under pressure we're crack
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more chance
Why can't we give love give love give love
'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for The people on the edge of the night
And loves dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure

No one ever knows what anyone is thinking, going through, dealing with, feeling or what pressure they are under. There are too many variables. As humans we keep so much inside. Hiding it from the people we see and talk to, hiding it from our closest friends, and even hiding it from ourselves. There is always an inner part of us that we wish we could change, get rid of, cure.
We all have to learn how to live with ourselves. We need to remember we all have something we are dealing with, some better than others. We all put on our happy faces in the darkest days. And it is easier for some to do than for others.
