Jessica Darrow | I'm the strong one, I'm not nervous
I'm as tough as the crust of the Earth is
I move mountains, I move churches
And I glow, 'cause I know what my worth is

Jessica Darrow | I'm the strong one, I'm not nervous
I'm as tough as the crust of the Earth is
I move mountains, I move churches
And I glow, 'cause I know what my worth is
I don't ask how hard the work is
Got a rough, indestructible surface
Diamonds and platinum, I find 'em, I flatten 'em
I take what I'm handed, I break what's demanded, but
[Verse 1]
Under the surface
I feel berserk as a tightrope walker in a three-ring circus
Under the surface
Was Hercules ever like, "Yo, I don't wanna fight Cerberus?"
Under the surface
I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service
[Pre-Chorus]
A flaw or a crack, the straw in the stack
That breaks the camel's back
What breaks the camel's back, it's
[Chorus]
Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa-oh-oh
Give it to your sister, your sister's older
Give her all the heavy things we can't shoulder
Who am I if I can't run with the ball?
If I fall to
Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa-oh-oh
Give it to your sister, your sister's stronger
See if she can hang on a little longer
Who am I if I can't carry it all?
If I falter
[Verse 2]
Under the surface
I hide my nerves and it worsens, I worry somethin' is gonna hurt us
Under the surface
The ship doesn't swerve, has it heard how big the iceberg is?
Under the surface
I think about my purpose, can I somehow preserve this?
Line up the dominoes, a light wind blows
You try to stop it tumbling, but on and on it goes
[Bridge]
But wait, if I could shake the crushing weight of expectations
Would that free some room up for joy
Or relaxation, or simple pleasure?
Instead, we measure this growing pressure
Keeps growing, keep going, 'cause all we know is
[Chorus]
Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa-oh-oh
Give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt and
See if she can handle every family burden
Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks
No mistakes, just
Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa-oh-oh
Give it to your sister and never wonder
If the same pressure would've pulled you under
Who am I if I don't have what it takes?
No cracks, no breaks
No mistakes, no pressure
Ma olen tugev, ma pole närvis
Olen sama karm kui maakoor
Ma liigutan mägesid, kolin kirikuid
Ja ma helendan, sest ma tean, mis on minu väärtus
Ma ei küsi, kui raske töö on
Sain kareda, hävimatu pinna
Teemandid ja plaatina, ma leian nad, ma lamen neid
Ma võtan selle, mis mulle kätte antakse, lõhun seda, mida nõutakse, aga
[Salm 1]
Pinna all
Tunnen end bersekina kui tihrope kõndijat kolme rõngaga tsirkuses
Pinna all
Kas Hercules oli kunagi nagu: "Jah, ma ei taha Cerberusega võidelda?"
Pinna all
Olen üsna kindel, et olen väärtusetu, kui ma ei saa olla teenindus
[Eelkoor]
Viga või pragu, õled virnas
Mis murrab kaameli selja
Mis murrab kaameli selja, see on
[Koor]
Surve nagu tilguti, tilkumine, tilk, mis ei peatu kunagi, whoa
Rõhk, mis on ots, ots, ots, kuni sa lihtsalt lähed popiks, who-oh-oh
Andke see oma õele, teie õde vanem
Andke talle kõik rasked asjad, mida me ei saa õlgadele
Kes ma olen, kui ma ei saa palliga joosta?
Kui ma langen
Surve nagu haare, haare, haare ja see ei lase lahti, kes
Surve nagu puuk, linnuke, linnuke, kuni see on valmis puhuma, who-oh-oh
Andke see oma õele, teie õde on tugevam
Vaadake, kas ta suudab natuke kauem riputada
Kes ma olen, kui ma ei suuda seda kõike kaasas kanda?
Kui ma põrkan
[Salm 2]
Pinna all
Ma peidan oma närve ja see halveneb, ma muretsen, et midagi teeb meile haiget
Pinna all
Laev ei pöördu, kas ta on kuulnud, kui suur on jäämägi?
Pinna all
Ma mõtlen oma eesmärgile, kas ma saan seda kuidagi säilitada?
Joondage doomino, kerge tuul puhub
Proovite lõpetada seda kiskumist, kuid edasi ja edasi läheb
[Sild]
Kuid oodake, kui ma saaksin ootuste purustavat raskust raputada
Kas see vabastaks ruumi rõõmu saamiseks
Või lõõgastus või lihtne nauding?
Selle asemel mõõdame seda kasvavat survet
Kasvab pidevalt, jätkab, sest kõik, mida me teame, on
[Koor]
Surve nagu tilguti, tilkumine, tilk, mis ei peatu kunagi, whoa
Rõhk, mis on ots, ots, ots, kuni sa lihtsalt lähed popiks, who-oh-oh
Anna see oma õele, see ei tee haiget ja
Vaadake, kas ta saab hakkama iga perekoormusega
Jälgige, kuidas ta painutab ja paindub, kuid ei purune kunagi
Pole vigu, lihtsalt
Surve nagu haare, haare, haare ja see ei lase lahti, kes
Surve nagu puuk, linnuke, linnuke, kuni see on valmis puhuma, who-oh-oh
Andke see oma õele ja ärge kunagi imestage
Kui sama rõhk oleks teid alla tõmmanud
Kes ma olen, kui mul pole seda, mida see võtab?
Ei pragusid ega pause
Pole vigu ega survet
