Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Clock on the wall Breathing too loud Mug on the table Hand-me-down doubts Curtains half open Grey in my chest All of these futures Stacked on my desk [Chorus] Pressure Like a thumb on my heart Pushing every soft part in deeper Pressure Every thought Every scar Pulling me apart from the center Say it’ll pass But it lingers Under skin Under weather Pressure Holding on by a thread I can’t measure [Verse 2] Phone on the counter Face to the floor Name in a message I don’t answer anymore Foot on the pedal Nowhere to drive All of this waiting Dulls me alive [Chorus] Pressure Like a thumb on my heart Pushing every soft part in deeper Pressure Every thought Every scar Pulling me apart from the center Say it’ll pass But it lingers Under skin Under weather Pressure Holding on by a thread I can’t measure [Bridge] [Choir rises Low and distant] I’m tired of treading in place (oh) Mouth full of brave I can’t taste If I crack open today Will the pieces stay [Chorus] Pressure Like a thumb on my heart Pushing every soft part in deeper Pressure Every thought Every scar Pulling me apart from the center Tell me it breaks Tell me it clears As the choir drowns my fears Pressure Sing me out of the dark ‘til I tremor

Verses stay intimate and breathy; chorus widens with layered background choir and reverb-drenched harmonies, tension rising through modulating chords and a late-arriving tom-heavy groove., art pop, ballad, dream pop
