Ihsahn - Pressure lyrics

I know I put this pressure on you To deal with and accept my being And the darkness that sometimes leak Through the cracks of my skull That slow grimy shadow Like oil spill from a sinking ship Still breathing and conscious Stare through a stranger's eyes Devoured and sedated Slow motion muted cries Now I need to put some pressure on myself Put some flesh on these bones in my mouth Rearrange these fragments in my head Ignite those dreams with a few bolts of lightning The spirit seeks to be a hammer That forge the future as it glows The mind curls like an anvil To take the fiery blows The heart will sing of danger The brave and reckless call Set sail towards a distant shore Misgiving memories lurk In the darkest pitfalls of the soul Like an anchor hauler across the ocean floor I put this pressure on you To deal with and accept my being Now I need to put some pressure on myself Burn the oil, ignite the dream
