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 

Have the nerve to think that what's next won't come for us 

But it will catch up

Just like the petals 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 petals 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 petals of a bouquet dissolve

The pride that held the weight is gone

Nothing, is what's left
