I don't want to know I'm just looking down And we just don't know how to acknowledge That we are the ones to blame I guess we're all the same Can you feel this pressure (Woah) It echoes in my head (Woah) And I don't want your stuff I can see this feeling's raging inside me I'd scream but I am dead See the fire burning Environmental souls It's all infected can you see the field Off glowing grass and trees Radioactivities Can you feel this pressure (Woah) It echoes in my head (Woah) And I don't want your stuff I can see this feeling's raging inside me I'd scream but I am dead Can you feel this pressure (Woah) (Can you fucking feel it) It echoes in my head (Woah) (It echoes in my fucking head) And I don't want your stuff I can see this feeling's raging inside me I'd scream but I am dead

MY VOICE 03:32

Searching the way to acceptance We never did this right The path was way to confusing Vision's got so out of sight Fuck your predictions Fuck your opinions This time we're gonna do it our way You don't have to leave, but You sure as hell can't stay I'm dying To cut out the chaos in the noise So long So long I'm dying This won't be the last time You'll hear my voice So long This won't be the last time You'll hear my voice Finding the road to rejection Never wanted to do it right The path is still too confusing But we never really had despite Thanks for the comments Thanks for the bullshit We never really listened to you anyway You still don't have to leave cause We know that you will stay I'm dying To cut out the chaos in the noise So long So long I'm dying This won't be the last time You'll hear my voice So long This won't be the last time You'll hear my voice

Your social skills are made of steel I read the room and everybody kneeled Cause your stories seem so fine A well created soul production line Allow me something to explain We'll end your tribulation campaign Without the chains of expectancy Light it up and then you're finally free You're just a narcissist But you don't even know it You somehow keep on saying that I'm not right And you still keep talking on and on and on and on Well people just keep sucking Still you won't even try All of the attachments, they were such a lie And now all your shit goes on and on and on and on and on Generous big company Please recycle agony You're enjoying all your fame So all the streets keep turning red A big spender and your tummy is fat The colors twist a frenzy stop No turning back your time is When you try to end it all And make it all alright You never crossed that line before Your principles have died You're just a narcissist But you don't even know it You somehow keep on saying that I'm not right And you still keep talking on and on and on and on Well people just keep sucking Still you won't even try All of the attachments, they were such a lie And now all your shit goes on and on and on and on and on Allow me something to explain We'll end your tribulation campaign Without the chains of expectancy Well light it up and then you're finally free You're just a narcissist But you don't even know it You somehow keep on saying that I'm not right And you still keep talking on and on and on and on Well people just keep sucking Still you won't even try All of the attachments, they were such a lie And now all your shit goes on and on and on and on and on On and on and on and on [shitload of times]

When I sit back in my room So late, it's morning I presume I feel the sunrays on my skin I'm still hungover but I've been I've been thinkin what to say (what?) I only hope that it's okay I feel good and I am right Cause you're already by my side And so out of control, You're still on my mind Well you push all my nerves And the pilot goes blind And seven years later I walk through this town While it still feels like never, but I heard your sound I went to the place That we used to like Had the road on my face 'cause I fell from my bike Pinch that needle in my vein A wicked feeling that I gain It's a story quite untold My mental health says we grow old And so out of control, You're still on my mind Well you push all my nerves And the pilot goes blind And seven years later I walk through this town While it still feels like never, but I heard your sound And so out of control, You're still on my mind Well you push all my nerves And the pilot goes blind And seven years later I walk through this town While it still feels like never, but I heard your sound And so out of control, You're still on my mind Well you push all my nerves And the pilot goes blind And seven years later I walk through this town While it still feels like never, but I heard your sound

I'm not so well Hope you can't tell I'ts all a sign I realize Stand up and brace Right hand to your face Search your soul and see That you make this about me! See I don't want to worry But things just take their toll Advertising statements Just take all of the control Feel all the expectations And claim your leading light Stand up for the truth and You can say your fears goodnight I'd never say Days gone believe That you're the way You shall receive Boots on the ground Propper bullet sounds Cause the brave will see It's the end of me Waving in the wind Like a child with wings Mark your target right Break your leg and fight! See I don't want to worry But things just take their toll Advertising statements Just take all of the control Feel all the expectations And claim your leading light Stand up for the truth and You can say your fears goodnight Are you gonna stand and salute? Are you gonna stand and salute? Are you gonna stand and salute? When are you gonna stand up?! See I don't want to worry But things just take their toll Advertising statements Just take all of the control Feel all the expectations And claim your leading light Stand up for the truth and You can say your fears goodnight Ha ha ha haaaa

WACK 02:48

Maintain your thighs Hold your belly tight Big and pretty eyes Cute and little lies Write it cool a hashtag, maybe a caption Post the pic and hope they fall for deception If it looks hot enough it should be okay All that noise, followers gaining Shape that ass, body restraining All that noise, it never goes away (that's wack!) When you fight your way to perfection Photoshop and auto correction Shape those legs, maybe they like me A cocktail with some lime? Or hold a glass of wine? Maybe a cigarette Oh shit, my hair looks dead (Oh no) The freckle on my face takes all the attention Or is that exactly what I should mention? Am I posing right? I looked better yesterday All that noise, followers gaining Shape that ass, body restraining All that noise, it never goes away (that's wack!) When you fight your way to perfection Photoshop and auto correction Shape those legs, maybe they like me All that noise, followers gaining Shape that ass, body restraining All that noise, it never goes away (that's wack!) When you fight your way to perfection Photoshop and auto correction Shape those legs, maybe they like me Wack! Wack! Wack!

CHECKMATE 01:39

Wherever you may go Whatever you may like The truth that I've been told It was never quite alright The movements were legit But no one ever gave a shit Off the radar you will find The awful mess we leave behind Never thought that what we used to be Could fit in this melody But when you learn that Letting go will be the key Then you're finally set free! Fight, alright It's been unjustified The win is what we own Kicking all the pieces right We never learned to quit We despise the hypocrite On the radar you will see The things that we are gonna be Never thought that what we used to be Could fit in this melody But when you learn that Letting go will be the key Then you're finally set free!

Everytime that I go down to this really awful place I need to fight my demons or I need to find my grace Can you feel this pleasure Can you feel the apathy Fuck all your prestations This is where I want to be And I don't want to go back home And everybody keeps saying I'm shitfaced And I'll never drink again This is misplaced I drink garbage out a can Shitfaced I don't know where I went wrong But every time I feel it I need something that feeds me right now Everytime that I go down to this really awful place Throwing my emotions in a really creepy space Drifting to a place I never knew it would exist Dancing with the feelings that I know I must resist And I don't want to go back home And everybody keeps saying I'm shitfaced And I'll never drink again This is misplaced I drink garbage out a can Shitfaced I don't know where I went wrong But every time I feel it I need something that feeds me right now Everytime that I go down to this really awful place I need to fight my demons or I need to find my grace Can you feel this pleasure Can you feel the appethy Fuck all your prestations This is where I want to be Everytime that I go down to this really awful place Throwing my emotions in a really creepy space Drifting to a place I never knew it would exist Dancing with the feelings that I know I must resist And I don't want to go back home Cause everybody keeps saying I'm shitfaced And I'll never drink again This is misplaced I drink garbage out a can Shitfaced I don't know where I went wrong But every time I feel it I need something that feeds me I'm shitfaced Never drink again Misplaced I drink garbage out a can Shitfaced I don't know where I belong But every time I feel like I need something that feeds me right now

TRIGGERWARNING 03:55
lyrics
buy track
Right in the room There's an interesting light switch Off side and on side A different language In the middle of the room There's a girl thinking What should i do? Turn it on? But that path might be dirty And really untrue I will hide behind memes Slowly crush all my dreams I won't even need the talent Cause I'm pretty, it seems The only thing I'll influence is natural selection I should try to live a life without seeking validation And now that she's living a life full of shame She's trying her best but she's so fucking lame It all looked so perfect, so sexy and rich Well pardon my French But you are your own problem, bitch! I think it that it's time that I switch to the off side No one will see me, ignore me and shit right? They all will despise me and hate me for just being true Being myself will destroy me so that I won't do I'll be best friends with pain Slowly going insane And other than some pride There is nothing to gain Maybe I'll be happy with a little bit of luck? Oh darling, trust me, I will tell you People still won't give a fuck! And now she still lived a life full of shame The odd one out is what she became The circus crushed her, no story to tell The pills took her out but don't worry She died in style

about

The band’s next crowning achievement is their upcoming studio album ‘PRESSURE’. Set to release on January 13th 2023. This album will be the most diverse addition to their discography yet, fittingly centered around the pressure the band experiences in their search for a cemented spot in the twisted world of the music industry.

Subjects such as rejection, narcissism, favoritism and the huge impact of the make-believe reality that social media creates get addressed. This happens in a powerful blend of punk, ska and post-hardcore and gets shoved down your throat. Throughout the record the band also experiments with heavy breakdowns, samples and even a brass section.

‘PRESSURE’ is Downtown District’s most refreshing work to date. Executed in a massive production, while retaining the band’s distinguished sound.
