Friction

Lyrics

[Verse 1]  
Get down with the victim  
We both know you need them  
You're stuck in the middle  
Of all irrelevance  
And your heart is beating  
Cause you know that you gotta  
Get out of the middle  
And rise to the top now  
  
[Pre-Chorus x2]  
When you've made it  
Won't ya tell me what to do  
Cause I'm playin' it all wrong  
  
[Chorus]  
You can't fight the friction (So ease it off)  
Can't take the pressure (So ease it off)  
Don't tell me to be strong (Ease it off)  
You can't fight the friction  
So, ease it off  
  
[Verse 2]  
And get into the system  
We both know you need one  
The tip of the needle  
Is taking over you  
And your heart is beating  
Cause you know that you gotta  
Get out of the middle  
And rise to the top now  
  
[Pre-Chorus x2]  
When you've made it  
Won't ya tell me what to do  
Cause I'm playin' it all wrong  
  
[Chorus]  
You can't fight the friction (So ease it off)  
Can't take the pressure (So ease it off)  
Don't tell me to be strong (Ease it off)  
You can't fight the friction  
So, ease it off  
  
[Bridge]  
Why can't you let go  
Like a bird in the snow  
This is no place to build your home  
  
[Chorus x2]  
You can't fight the friction (So ease it off)  
Can't take the pressure (So ease it off)  
Don't tell me to be strong (Ease it off)  
You can't fight the friction  
So, ease it off
