lyrics

DO YOU EVER FEEL THE PRESSURE
LIKE A ROPE AROUND YOUR NECK
SOMETIMES I FEEL IT CUTTING OFF THE AIR
LIKE A ROPE AROUND THE NECK
IF IT’S DEAD, I WILL LEAVE IT
IF IT’S ALIVE, I WILL TAKE IT WITH ME
IF IT’S DEAD, I WILL LEAVE IT
LIKE THE ROPE AROUND MY NECK
LIKE A ROPE AROUND THE NECK
LIKE A ROPE AROUND THE NECK
LIKE A ROPE AROUND THE NECK
LIKE A ROPE AROUND THE NECK
LIKE A ROPE AROUND THE NECK
LIKE A ROPE AROUND THE NECK
LIKE A ROPE AROUND THE NECK
