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 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 A flaw or a crack A straw in the stack That breaks the camel's back What breaks the camel's back? It's Pressure like a drip, drip, drip, that'll never stop Whoa-oh Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop Whoa-oh-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-oh Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow Whoa-oh-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 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 As 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 tumblin' But on and on it goes 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 Pressure like a drip, drip, drip, that'll never stop Whoa-oh Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop Whoa-oh-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-oh Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow Whoa-oh-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

See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me And no one knows, how far it goes I've been staring at the edge of the water Long as I can remember, never really knowing why I wish I could be the perfect son but Then I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try Every turn I take, every trail I track Every path I make, every road leads back To the place I know where I cannot go Where I long to be See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me And no one knows, how far it goes If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me One day I'll know If I go there's just no telling how far I'll go I know everybody on this island seems so happy on this island Everything is by design I know everybody on this island has a role on this island So maybe I can roll with mine I can lead with pride, I can make us strong I'll be satisfied if I play along But the voice inside sings a different song What is wrong with me? See the light as it shines on the sea? It's blinding But no one knows, how deep it goes And it seems like it's calling out to me, so come find me And let me know What's beyond that line, will I cross that line? And the line where the sky meets the sea, it calls me And no one knows, how far it goes If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me One day I'll know How far I'll go
