The War on Drugs
Under the Pressure
[Verse 1]
Well, the comedown here was easy
Like the arrival of a new day
But a dream like this gets wasted
Without you
[Chorus]
Under the pressure
Is where we are
Under the pressure
Yeah, it's where we are, babe
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, you're the only one
Like an illusion
[Verse 2]
When it all breaks down and we're runaways
Standin' in the wake of our pain
And we stare straight into nothin'
But we call it all the same
You were raised on a promise
Found that over time
Better come around to the new way
Or watch as it all breaks down here
[Chorus]
Under the pressure
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Well, the break down here
Stole it all the way across
I wanna climb downhill
Stranded on
When you come here and I'm wasted
Lyin' on a field, dancin' in the rain
Hidin' in the back, loosenin' my grip
Wadin' in the water, just tryin' not to crack
[Chorus]
Under the pressure
Yeah, it's where we are, babe
Under the pressure
Woo!
