Under Pressure

[Verse 1: Jamie Stewart and Michael Gira / Both] Pressure Pushing down on me Pushing down on you No man ask for Under pressure That burns a building down Splits a family in two Puts some people on the streets [Chorus: Jamie Stewart and Michael Gira / Both] It's the terror of knowing what this world is about Watching some good friends scream, "Let me out!" Pray tomorrow takes me higher Pressure on the people People on the streets [Verse 2: Caralee McElroy] Chippin' around Kick my brains 'round the floor These are the days It never rains, but it pours [Pre-Chorus: Jamie Stewart and Michael Gira] People on the streets People on the streets [Chorus: Jamie Stewart and Michael Gira] It's the terror of knowing what this world is about Watching some good friends scream, "Let me out!" Pray tomorrow takes me high, high, high [Bridge: Jamie Stewart and Michael Gira] Turned away from it all, like a blind man Sat on a fence but it don't work Keep coming up with love But it's so slashed and torn Insanity laughs under pressure We're cracking [Verse 3: Jamie Stewart / Michael Gira and Caralee McElroy] Why can't we give ourselves one more chance? Why can't we give love that one more chance? Why can't we give love, give love, give love? Give love, give love, give love, give love, give love? [Outro: Michael Gira / Jamie Stewart and Michael Gira] 'Cause love's such an old-fashioned word And love dares you to care For the people on the edge of the night And love dares you to change Our way of caring about ourselves This is our last dance This is our last dance This is ourselves
