Under Pressure
what am i meant to do
i am going to hurt
and make her cry
stick by my side
hold me –
till the sky turns black
everything has started now
there is no turning back
i am going to cry
i will try to comfort her
i have taken her heart
and i’m the one who made it break
i feel such a fake
i never meant to be so weak
i’ve got half way there
but under pressure,
i can’t take the heat
but… i do care
James Garratt – Friday 28th October 1994
