  • Unbelievable tension, wall of sound
    No real reason and I can't escape it
    Unbelievable tension, wall of sound
    Monolithic, so I'm gonna stay still

    'Cause every time I try
    Talking myself backwards
    Away from my desires
    Something inside stops me, oh
    Every time I try, something inside stops me, yeah
    I, I, I, yeah
    Every time I try (every time I try, try, try, try, try, try)
    Talking myself backwards
    Away from my desires (away from my desi-i-i-i-i-ire)
    Something inside me stops me, oh
    Every time I try (every time I try, try, try, try, try, try)
    Something inside me stops me, yeah
    I, I, I, yeah

    Unbelievable pressure, wall of sound
    Love and hatred and I can't escape it
    Tell me you hear it, that wall of sound
    Growing louder, so I'm gonna stay still

    'Cause every time I try
    Talking myself backwards
    Away from my desires
    Something inside stops me, oh
    Every time I try, something inside stops me, yeah
    I, I, I, yeah
    Every time I try (every time I try, try, try, try, try, try)
    Talking myself backwards
    Away from my desires (away from my desi-i-i-i-i-ire)
    Something inside stops me, oh
    Every time I try (every time I try, try, try, try, try, try)
    Something inside stops me, yeah
    I, I, I, yeah

    Tell me that you love me
    Tell me that you need me
    You're what keeps me breathing
    Keeps my heart beating
    Tell me that you love me
    Tell me that you need me
    Tell me that you need me, oh

    Unbelievable tension, wall of sound
    Love and hatred and I can't escape it
    Unbelievable tension, wall of sound
    Monolithic, so I'm gonna stay still Writer/s: Charlotte Aitchison, Finn Keane
