Under the Pressure Lyrics
Like the arrival of a new day
But a dream like this gets wasted
Without you
Under the pressure
Not gonna loose you, when it all breaks down
And the runaways standing in the wind and pray
And they stare straight into nothing,
On a promise, found out over time
Bet it will come around, get a new way
Or watches how it all breaks down here
The storm and the wind will go
However you count down there
Stay, keep holding on!
Now, you know how it feels
This is really, warden in my back
Goose all in my gut
Under pressure






Quite possibly the most beautiful song in years. A stunning achievement in rhythm, sounds, breadth!!!! Simply put -- BRILLIANT!

For f's sake, "comb down?" It's come down. With a come down here it's easy Like the arrival of a new day But a dream like this gets wasted Without you Under the pressure.

Maybe it's a good song, but with so many versions of the lyrics out there I think Adam owes us the accurate lyrics before we jump to conclusions.
@tpeck Unfortunately, (and trust me, I want the accurate lyrics also) I don't think Adam "owes" us anything, since music is generally left up to our own conclusions that we draw.

It's great song, I listened to it alot when I was under great stress to finish my projects. The problem with so much pressure is that you can easily forget your goals, your dreams, why you started doing something in the first place.

The come down here was easy, like the arrival of a new day But a dream like this gets wasted without you Under the pressure Is where we are Under the pressure Yeah, it’s where we are, babe You’re the only one — like an illusion
When it all breaks down and we’re runaways Standing in the wake of our pain And we stare straight into nothing But we call it all the same You were raised on a promise Found that over time Better come around to the new way Or watch as it all breaks down here Under the pressure
Well the breakdown here, stolen or we let go I want to drive by Anna, staring on And you call “here, another whisky” Crying in a beer, pissin’ I’m crying in my bed Loosening my grip Fading in the world Just trying not to crack under the pressure
Yeah, it’s where we are babe Under the pressure
