Some Kind of Pressure
Under Pressure: Unveiling the Depths of Emotion in 'Some Kind of Pressure'
Lyrics
I'm an island
I feel isolated or detached.
Growing everytime you spew your ashes onto me
Your negative words or actions affect and build upon me.
Like a geyser
Similar to a geyser, I'm erupting or expressing myself.
Started out when you erupted on the bottom of the sea
My existence started with a significant upheaval or disturbance.
I'll be dying
I will face mortality soon, allowing you to understand its weight.
Soon enough for you to know what it's like
Smiling despite impending death.
To be smiling
Expressing the paradox of joy in the face of death.
We'll be smiling
Collective happiness shared with others.
I'm a diamond
I possess inner strength but have been worn down.
Roughly sanded down to the core
Raw and exposed at my core.
Pressure rising
Undergoing intense pressure, becoming resilient.
Hardening again but still a long way to go
Despite hardening, there is still progress to be made.
I am happy
Expressing happiness, causing resentment in others.
Makes you fucking hate my guts
The joy I feel generates animosity in others.
But im happy
Reiteration of personal happiness despite external reactions.
I'm so happy
An intensified expression of happiness.
Please let me breathe
Pleading for space or freedom to breathe.
Don't compare yourself to the ones in true disease
Discouraging comparisons with those truly suffering.
The jellyfish is not in you he's not in me
Emphasizing that the troubles of others are not within oneself.
Don't compare yourself to the ones in true disease
Reiteration of not comparing to those facing genuine hardship.
The jellyfish is not in you he's not in me
Stressing that the pain of others is separate from personal experience.
Don't compare yourself to the ones in true disease
Continued emphasis on avoiding comparisons with those in true distress.
The jellyfish is not in you he's not in me
Highlighting the distinction from those genuinely suffering.
Don't compare yourself to the ones in true disease
Repeating the plea to avoid comparing with those in true disease.
The jellyfish is not in you he's not in me
Reiterating that the struggles of others are not shared.
