Pressure

I don't understand
What they want from me
They take my hands
Washing them in dirty water
Try to find what's right
In a distant place
So far away
The silence fills my heart with empty space.

But now I'm sure of where I'll go from here
And tensions rise,
They push me to divert my vision
But I will break the ceiling and the walls that kept me in
For all this time
And all the reasons that I cannot find.

They'll wait for me to fall under the pressure
They'll wait for me to give it up
Well I will not work against the forces
I just have to stay above the rushing, the rushing, water.

I will do my best to keep myself composed
It takes a lot not to overload
They can't tell me what is right for me
I just need peace of mind and my ability
No one said that it would be this hard
You can't force it but you'll play your part
So I will run until I reach the end and who knows where I'll be
But all I know is that we'll start again.

They'll wait for me to fall under the pressure
They'll wait for me to give it up
Well I will not work against the forces
I just have to stay above the rushing, the rushing, water.

I've got my sights on
My sights on a brand new beginning
A steady rhythm will hold me to the shore
I've got my sights on
My sights on a brand new beginning
A steady rhythm will hold me to the shore.
