Pressure and Weight Lyrics

At times like these

I don't know what to say

When things are looking rough

Familiar shade of grey

Lost in a landslide

Embrace the change

It's double-edged advice

'Cause I'd rather stay

It's tough but it's time to admit

We keep pretending

That we can out run it

And have the nerve to think

That what's next won't come for us

It will catch up

Just like the pedals of a bouquet

We dissolve away

Keep on moving, they say

Almost falling backwards

When we have no words

To convey pressure and weight

So on my chest they stay

If what we want

Feels like it can't be reached

Just a half step off

Like we're out of key

Keep singing our tune

And naively

Think that one day

We'll find our beat

Just like the pedals of a bouquet

We dissolve away

Keep on moving, they say

Almost falling backwards

When we have no words

To convey pressure and weight

So on my chest they stay

Just like the pedals of a bouquet dissolve

The pride that held the weight is gone

Nothing, is what's left

Just like the pedals of a bouquet dissolve

The pride that held the weight is gone

Nothing, is what's left
