Lyrics

I feel the pressure of expectation

I sense the burden of anticipated expectations

When will it let me off the hook?

When will the pressure release me from responsibility?

I feel this clinging hesitation

I experience a persistent hesitation

When I'm singing and it can't be shook

Especially when singing, the pressure is unshakable


I'm lookin for a sound source

I am searching for a source of inspiration or creativity

In an envelope

It may be contained in an envelope

In a notebook

Or within the pages of a notebook

In a picture in a frame

It could be found in a picture within a frame

I'm a transformer when I don't have the shame

I transform when I am free from shame


I feel this pressure

The pressure is felt strongly

When will it let me off the hook?

When will the pressure be relieved?

I feel this pressure and it can't be shook

The pressure persists and cannot be overcome


It's got my number

The pressure understands me intimately

It knows where I live and it followed me home

It is aware of my location and has followed me

I feel the pressure of expectation and I know that I'm not alone

The burden of expectation is shared by others

I'll pop a pill, I'll drop a tab,

Consideration of using substances to cope

It'll go away but then it comes right back

Temporary relief followed by a return of pressure


Maybe if I went to Saturn for a spell

Contemplating escaping to Saturn for a break

What would I be missing?

Questioning what might be missed during the escape

I might as well

Choosing to go to Saturn seems inevitable

I might as well

Acceptance of the decision to go to Saturn


I feel this pressure

Intense feelings of pressure persist

When will it let me off the hook?

When will the pressure release its grip?

I feel this pressure and it can't be shook

The pressure continues, unyielding


I feel this pressure

The pressure remains a significant force

When will it let me off the hook?

When will the pressure finally ease?

I feel this pressure and it can't be shook

The pressure persists and is unshakeable
