Don't Look Down
Bring Me The Horizon ft. Orifice Vulgatron (Foreign Beggars) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't look down.
Let's go.

You'll never take me
You'll never win
If I'm going down
You're coming with me.
I'll never shut down
I'll never sleep.
If I'm going down
I'll take the world with me.

Yo
The Devil's at your door
You sold your soul
Now he's coming back for more
No fighting it, it will only make it worse.
You signed the line
You said the words.
Get ready for the end of everything.
(Don't look down)
Get ready for the end of everything.

Yo
The Devil's at your door
(The Devil's at your door)
You sold your soul now he's coming back for more.
Don't fight it, it will only make it worse.
You signed the line, you said the words.
Get ready for the end of everything.
Get ready for the end of everything.

What have you done?
You've opened it now.
And I'm not sure there's anyway out.
Why do you run?
It's tripping me out.
And I don't know if I can keep up with you now.

The sky is falling
The sun is burning
A hallway to our eyes.
The ground will open
Like an ocean
And swallow us alive.
You say you swear to god
Now swear to me!
You say you swear to god
Now swear to me!

Yo
The Devil's at your door
You sold your soul
Now he's coming back for more.
Don't fight it, it will only make it worse.
You signed the line
You said the words.
Get ready for the end of everything.
(You'll never take me!)
(You'll never win!)
Get ready for the end of everything.

If I'm going down
I'll take the world with me!

What have you done?
You've opened it now.
And I'm not sure there's anyway out.
Why do you run?
It's tripping me out.
And I don't know if I can keep up with you now.

The sky is falling
The sun is burning
A hallway to our eyes.
The ground will open
Like an ocean
And swallow us alive.
You say you swear to god
Now swear to me!
You say you swear to god
Now swear to me!

The sky is falling
The sun is burning
A hallway to our eyes.
The ground will open
Like an ocean
And swallow us alive.
You say you swear to god
Now swear to me!
You say you swear to god
Now swear to me!




Now swear to me!
Now swear to me
