[Verse 1]

Sweaty palms and a shivering heart

Mind giving out when I need to play a part

Clenched teeth in a circumstance

What I would give for my brain to understand...

[Chorus]

...the pressure's on

Oh the pressure's on

[Verse 2]

Out of time to deliberate

Wasting away as I'm deciding fate

Losing grip on reality

For honor or panic or pain it's up to me...

[Chorus]

...the pressure's on

Oh the pressure's on

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]

Meditate on the consequence

Dodging commitment as I sit on the fence

Run away from my pride and shame

What will they know that I've done when they hear my name

[Chorus]

...the pressure's on

Oh the pressure's on
