The Pressure
Michel De Hey vs M.I.R.K.O Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Picture in your roaming mind,
Another place, another time
Once took more than just a whine,
To make me stop and look behind
False belief and vain hope,
I lie to myself and pretend to cope

Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me
Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me

Never mind you'll be blind,
You're confined to a paranoid mind
Never mind you'll be blind,
You're confined to a paranoid mind

Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me
Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me

If I stop and take a look,
The whispers stop, I become unstuck
A second look from slight eye,
The need to run from passers-by
Feeling I get from inside,
The need to run from the phantoms of mine
Having mind of a certain kind,
I'm confined to a paranoid mind

Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me
Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me

Never mind you'll be blind,
You're confined to a paranoid mind
Never mind you'll be blind,
You're confined to a paranoid mind

Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me
Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me

Fucked up mind is in a state,
Constant paranoia now turned to hate
You better go your fate is near,
Cling to a life you hold so dear
I see red I want you dead -
A lost cause is what the doctor said
Having mind of a certain kind,
I'm confined to a paranoid mind

Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me
Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me

Never mind you'll be blind,
You're confined to a paranoid mind
Never mind you'll be blind,
You're confined to a paranoid mind

Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me




Don't put too much pressure on,
Don't put too much pressure on me

Line by Line Meaning

Picture in your roaming mind,
Imagine in your wandering thoughts,


Another place, another time
A different location, a different moment,


Once took more than just a whine,
Previously it required more than just a complaint,


To make me stop and look behind
To force me to halt and examine my past actions,


False belief and vain hope,
Incorrect convictions and pointless wishes,


I lie to myself and pretend to cope
I deceive myself and feign stability,


Don't put too much pressure on,
Do not demand too much of me,


Don't put too much pressure on me
Please do not overwhelm me,


Never mind you'll be blind,
Ignore that you will be unable to see,


You're confined to a paranoid mind
You are restricted to a delusional thought process,


If I stop and take a look,
If I pause and assess my surroundings,


The whispers stop, I become unstuck
The murmurs cease, I am liberated from my fears,


A second look from slight eye,
A quick glimpse from a side glance,


The need to run from passers-by
The urge to flee from pedestrians,


Feeling I get from inside,
Sensation that arises within me,


The need to run from the phantoms of mine
The necessity to escape from my own hallucinations,


Having mind of a certain kind,
Possessing a particular type of mind,


I'm confined to a paranoid mind
I am imprisoned by my own paranoia,


Fucked up mind is in a state,
Distorted mind is in a condition,


Constant paranoia now turned to hate
Perpetual fear now transformed to animosity,


You better go your fate is near,
You should leave now, death is imminent,


Cling to a life you hold so dear
Hold onto the existence you cherish,


I see red I want you dead -
I am enraged and want you to perish -


A lost cause is what the doctor said
The physician declared me beyond recovery,


Don't put too much pressure on,
Do not apply excessive force on me,


Never mind you'll be blind,
Disregard the fact that you will not be able to see,


You're confined to a paranoid mind
You are trapped in a mind consumed by fear,
