Pressure
Budapest Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So crowded, over crowded.
Find me some room to move.

So twisted, so blistered.
Give me some room to unwind.

Release the valve, release the pressure.
I'll blow my veins, It's in my nature.
Coming up too fast and I can not find,
My decompression chamber.

So different, so completely different.
Give me something to relate to please.

Release the valve, release the pressure.
I'll blow my veins; It's in my nature.
Coming up too fast and I can not find,
My decompression chamber.

What are you trying to say to me?
It's always, always me.

Coming up too fast and I can not find,
My decompression chamber.
Release the pressure, to make me better,
Release the pressure,
To make me well enough to be myself,
To laugh, to smile, to breathe a while.




To cry to be just true to me,
I long to be myself.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Budapest's song "Pressure" speak of the need for space and release from the overwhelming pressures of life. The opening lines describe feeling crowded and twisted, with a desire to find room to move and unwind. The chorus emphasizes the need for release, using the metaphor of blowing one's veins to express the intensity of the situation. The singer longs for a decompression chamber to help alleviate the pressure, highlighting the feeling of being without a safe space to escape to. The second verse touches on the theme of feeling different and disconnected from others, with a plea for something to relate to. The repeating chorus underscores the importance of finding release in order to be true to oneself.


Overall, the lyrics are a commentary on the stresses of modern life and the need for self-care and space to decompress. They express the struggle of trying to keep up with the demands of society while maintaining a sense of individuality and mental well-being. The "pressure" referred to in the song can be seen as a metaphor for the multitude of responsibilities that weigh us down, or for the internal struggles we face in trying to remain true to ourselves in an increasingly conformist world.
