Pressure

I'm doing everything backwards
I've got this picture in the back of my mind
I want it all to be perfect
I'm crossing signals, won't you send me a sign?

'Cause the world won't stop when your head is spinning
Oh, I'm underwater, need to catch my breath
Oh, I'm feeling nervous
Oh, I'm under pressure with you
(Under pressure)

Yeah, it's a poor solution to a high-class problem
Oh, I never thought that it would get this bad
Oh, no way to measure
Oh, I'm under pressure with you
I'm under pressure

I'm under pressure, I lose my mind
Why are we speeding? There's plenty of time
Every direction is coming for me
I guess that's just how it's supposed to be

We need to change our perception
Let's make it look like we are covered in gold
Let's fill our bodies with poison
And make it look like we will never grow old

'Cause the world won't stop when your head is spinning
Oh, I'm underwater, need to catch my breath
Oh, I'm feeling nervous
Oh, I'm under pressure with you
(Under pressure)

Yeah, it's a poor solution to a high-class problem
Oh, I never thought that it would get this bad
Oh, no way to measure
Oh, I'm under pressure with you
I'm under pressure

I'm under pressure, I lose my mind
Why are we speeding? There's plenty of time
Every direction is coming for me
I guess that's just how it's supposed to be

Now you're in the game
You're going up, you're coming down
They will name their price
You'll pay it twice, your hopes are bound

'Cause the world won't stop when your head is spinning
Oh, I'm underwater, need to catch my breath
Oh, I'm feeling nervous
Oh, I'm under pressure with you
(Under pressure)

And when your back is broke, like your finger's blistered
Oh, your sweat and blood ain't gonna be enough
Oh, no getting better
Oh, I'm under pressure with you
I'm under pressure

I'm feeling pressure over again
The walls are moving, the air is thin
We're under pressure, reality
I guess that's just how it's supposed to be
