What song do I relate to?

The song I chose is by a band I grew up listening to and a song I had fairly good memories. I also chose this song because It's on my ipod, and I honestly can't help but to sing too it, it's not an option it's basically automatic. So anyways The song is by Queen and it's titled "Under Pressure"

These are the lyrics:
Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets

It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming, "Let me out!"
Tomorrow gets me higher
Pressure on people - people on streets

Chippin' around, kick my brains 'round the floor
These are the days - it never rains but it pours
People on streets - people on streets

It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming, "Let me out!"
Tomorrow gets me higher, higher, higher...
Pressure on people - people on streets

Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn
Why, why, why?

Love

Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
Why can't we give love that one more chance?
Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love, give love, give love, give love, give love?..

'Cause love's such an old-fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
I can relate to the following lines:

It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming, "Let me out!"

So I can relate to these lines because I'm pressured and I'm sure some of you are but It's the time of you're life when people ask you "what do you want to be when you grow up?" and honestly we still don't know a whole lot about the world, I also can relate to the part "watching some good friends screaming "Let me out!". because I have had some really good friends make some unwise choices because of pressure and stress.

Chippin' around, kick my brains 'round the floor
These are the days - it never rains but it pours

 I can also relate to these lines because sometimes I feel like I'm not where I supposed to be, i'm just out of it, mentally beating myself up. These are often the days where it is not raining but more of a downpour which gives me a more of a motivation to do nothing.
 
The last example I can relate to is
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance?

I can relate to this because under pressure we crack and a part of us; the insanity loves seeing us struggle in a sense, but some days I don't know if it's worth it because I don't know if I should give myself another chance to recover.
