Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Underneath the ceiling fan
I count the hours til the night
Palm against the windowpane
Wondering if I'll get it right
Everybody's leaning in
Wanting pieces of my time
Stretching out my thinning skin
Nothing that I do feels mine
[Pre-Chorus]
And the walls keep closing slow
Every breath a heavy toll
[Chorus]
It's too much pressure
Too much weight on my shoulders now
It's too much pressure
Can't carry what they hand me now
Just let it fall
Just let it fall away
[Verse 2]
Morning comes with empty plate
Another list I didn't write
Promises that always wait
Couldn't make them by tonight
Phone keeps buzzing on the shelf
Voices talking over me
I just want a quiet shelf
Somewhere I can simply be
[Pre-Chorus]
And the ceiling's coming low
Every word a heavier blow
[Chorus]
It's too much pressure
Too much weight on my shoulders now
It's too much pressure
Can't carry what they hand me now
Just let it fall
Just let it fall away
[Bridge]
Maybe I can leave it all behind
Leave it in the morning light
Give the heavy parts to yesterday
Walk away and feel alright
[Chorus]
It's too much pressure
Too much weight on my shoulders now
It's too much pressure
Can't carry what they hand me now
Just let it fall
Just let it fall away
[Outro]
Let it fall
Let it fall away
Mm
Let it fall
