Austin & Ally Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Woah
I'm walking on a thin line
And my hands are tied
Got no where to hide
I'm standing at a crossroads
Don't know where to go
Yeah I'm caught in between
Where I'm going and where I've been
But I know, there's no turning back
Yeah
It's like I'm balanced on the edge
It's like I'm hanging by a thread
But I'm still gonna push ahead
So I tell myself
Yeah, I tell myself
Don't look down, down, down, down
Don't look down, down, down, down
Don't look down, down, down, down
Don't look down, down, down, down
It'd be so easy
Just to run
It'd be so easy
To just give up
But I'm not that girl who go turn my back
There's no turning back
No turning back
It's like I'm balanced on the edge
It's like I'm hanging by a thread
But I'm still gonna push ahead
So I tell myself
Yeah I tell myself
Don't look down, down, down, down
(down!)
Don't look down, down, down, down
Don't look down, down, down, down
(Austin, don't look down! Don't look down!)
Don't look down, down, down, down!
