Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Set the wheels in motion
Watch them turnin' 'round
I wanna sail across the ocean
I've grown weary of this town
[Chorus]
Take the pressure down
'Cause I can feel it
It's rising like a storm
Take hold of the wheels and turn them around
Take the pressure down
[Verse 2]
In this city full of danger
We lead our separate lives
And I was frightened by a stranger
With desperation in her eyes
[Chorus]
Take the pressure down
'Cause I can feel it
It's rising like a storm
Take hold of the wheels and turn them around
Take the pressure down
[Bridge]
Someone turned the pressure on
I called your name, and you were gone
And I was trapped like a prisoner in this lonely town
I'm gonna let things slide
Until the pressure comes down
[Verse 3]
Oh, the winner tells his story
The loser hides in shame
The winner steals the glory
While the loser takes the pain
[Chorus]
Take the pressure down
'Cause I can feel it
It's rising like a storm
Take hold of the wheels and turn them around
Take the pressure down
[Chorus]
Take the pressure down
'Cause I can feel it
It's rising like a storm
Take hold of the wheels and turn them around
Take the pressure down
[Chorus]
Take the pressure down
'Cause I can feel it
It's rising like a storm
Take hold of the wheels and turn them around
Take the pressure down
[Chorus]
Take the pressure down
'Cause I can feel it
It's rising like a storm
Take hold of the wheel, turn them around
Take the pressure down
[Chorus]
Oh, take the pressure down
'Cause I can feel it
It's rising like a storm
Take hold of the wheels and turn them around
Take the pressure down
