Whispering voices in my head
Sounds like they're calling my name
A heavy hand is shaking my bed
I'm waking up and I feel the strain

I'm feeling pushed again... I'm feeling pushed again...

Why should I go where everyone goes?
Why should I do what everyone does?
I don't like it when you get too close
I don't wanna be under your thumb

I'm feeling pushed again... pushed again
I'm feeling pushed again... pushed again

Why can't you just leave me alone?
Solitude is a faithful friend
Turn the lights off - I'm not home
Can't you see, I don't need your help?

You're going fast when I wanna go slow
You make me run when I want to walk
You're sending me down a rocky road
I get confused when you start to talk

I'm feeling pushed again... feeling pushed again
I'm feeling pushed again... pushed again
Why can't you just leave me alone?
You're dragging me right to the edge
I've got to go when you jerk my rope
I don't know where the good times went

And I'm sick of this pain in my head
And I'm scared I'm being pushed - being pushed again

It's getting more than I can take
It's like a band tightening around my head
If you keep pushing, something's going to break
It's making me think, I'd be better off dead

Why can't you just leave me alone?
Solitude is a faithful friend
I'll sort my life out on my own
I just want this pressure to end

And I'm sick of this pain in my head
And I'm scared I'm being pushed - being pushed again
