It's Going Down
3RD Degree Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know it's over
But life goes on
And this old world will keep on turning
Let's just be glad
We had some time to spend together
There's no need to watch the bridges
That were burning
Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body
Close to mine
Hear the whisper of the rain drops
Blowing soft against the window
And make believe you love me
One more time
For the good times
I'll get along
You'll find another
And I'll be here
If you should find you ever need me
Don't say a word about tomorrow
Or forever
There'll be time enough for sadness
When you leave me
Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body
Close to mine
Hear the whisper of the rain drops
Blowing soft against the window
And make believe you love me
One more time
The lyrics of 3RD Degree's song "It's Going Down" depict a bittersweet breakup between two people who had a meaningful relationship. The first stanza serves as a reminder that life goes on, even after something ends. It encourages the listener to be grateful for the time spent together and to let go of any grudges. While the bridges that were burned cannot be rebuilt, it is possible to move forward and leave the past behind.
The second stanza is more romantic, as it describes the intimate moments shared by the couple. The singer invites their love interest to lay their head on their pillow and hold their body close. They listen to the sound of raindrops outside and reminisce about the past. The phrase "make believe you love me one more time for the good times" is particularly poignant because it suggests that the love between the two is now artificial, but they are willing to pretend for the sake of nostalgia.
The third stanza is a farewell. The singer acknowledges that they will both move on and find someone else. However, they will always be available for each other if needed. They urge their partner not to dwell on the future or the past, and to live in the moment. The final invitation to lay their head on the pillow once more is a tender goodbye, with the knowledge that this will be the last time.
