about
my friends Wishbook released a wonderful album in September (wishbook.bandcamp.com/album/everything-fades) and following the release concert, i just couldn't get this song out of my head. i knew i had to do a cover. please enjoy my more 'chippier' version of this beautiful, moody song.

lyrics
Sometimes when the voices seem to swirl around
So fast that you can’t even tell who’s speaking
And the heavy words they stick and form into a cloud
With a mist that covers everything you’re thinking
Clouds can come in all shapes and sizes
And they can hang around as long as they please
But when it seems they’re never going to dissipate
You can hang what you can’t take on me
I’ll stay cool under pressure
Like a rock beneath your feet
Like the shoulders you stand on
When your dreams are out of reach
Only cut like a diamond
By a stone just as hard as me
I’ll stay cool under pressure
Lay it all on me
Some days are harder than others
They can stretch on longer than you can see
And still it seems like there’s no time for anything
Like the ground that rises as fast as you can move your feet
But every wave has got to break
If you ride it out the wind will be at your back
And if you get pulled under just remember
Stay cool under pressure
Like a rock beneath your feet
Like the shoulders you stand on
When your dreams are out of reach
Only cut like a diamond
By a stone just as hard as me
Stay cool under pressure
Just breathe
I’ll stay cool under pressure
Like a rock beneath your feet
Like the shoulders you stand on
When your dreams are out of reach
Only cut like a diamond
By a stone just as hard as me
I’ll stay cool under pressure
Just ask anyone
