Top Down
BROWN & GRAY Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So I stayed for the summer
Shot down, burnt out
This is living
Got you confused with another girl
But you’re a gun set to stunner
Reach to the stars
We’ll be driving with the top down, top down tonight
We’ll find our way to the summer
Top down, top down tonight
We’ll find our way to the summer
We’ll find our way to the summer
We’ll find our way to the summer
Sunk down the sea ’til I found a pearl
And I swam like a runner
Shot down, burnt out
This is living
Got myself down but I took a turn
Now I know what I’m needing
Reach to the stars
When we’re winning
We’ll be driving with the top down, top down tonight
We’ll find our way to the summer
Top down, top down tonight
We’ll find our way to the summer
We’ll find our way to the summer
We’ll find our way to the summer
We’ll be driving with the top down, top down tonight
We’ll find our way to the summer
Top down, top down tonight
We’ll find our way to the summer
We’ll find our way to the summer
We’ll find our way to the summer
In BROWN & GRAY's song Top Down, the lyrics talk about chasing a dream or a feeling down to another world, which is where the singer decides to stay for the summer. This could be interpreted as the singer taking a break from their reality and seeking out something new and exciting. The lyrics "shot down, burnt out, this is living" suggest that even though the singer may have encountered obstacles, they still see this new experience as a form of living.
There is a sense of confusion in the lyrics when the singer mentions being confused with another girl, but realizing that the person they are with is actually like a "gun set to stunner." This could mean that they were initially unsure about this new person, but have grown to appreciate their qualities. The lyrics encourage the listener to keep reaching for their goals and chasing their dreams, even if it means taking risks along the way. Ultimately, the chorus reiterates the idea that the singer and their company will be driving with the top down, seeking out the joys of summer.

I chased my tail down to another world
I went on a wild goose chase to another world
So I stayed for the summer
I decided to stay for the summer
Shot down, burnt out
I'm exhausted and defeated
This is living
This is what life is like
Got you confused with another girl
Mistakenly thought you were someone else
But you’re a gun set to stunner
You are stunning
Reach to the stars
Aspire for greatness
When we’re winning
When things are going well
We’ll find our way to the summer
We will make it to summer
Sunk down the sea ’til I found a pearl
I searched until I found something valuable
And I swam like a runner
I swam fast
Got myself down but I took a turn
I hit rock bottom but things turned around
Now I know what I’m needing
I now know what I want
We’ll be driving with the top down, top down tonight
We'll be cruising with the top down tonight
We’ll find our way to the summer
We will make it to summer

Heard this on "Country Music TV," and I gotta say, these two make a great sound together, and the r&b actually seems to make the song even more enjoyable. Well done. Well done indeed.
