Upside Down
Julen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You were the first to care about me
You were the first to show me what love is
Sometimes it feels like we are in different dimensions
And you pull away but i know it's not your intention
When you say that friends don't lie
Let me ask you one more time
Cause I can see it from a thousand miles
Tell me can i help you cause I
I would go through the upside down
To save you to save you
And I would fight all the monsters that stand in our way
To save you to save you
I would give my life if it means i can see you again
I would turn the world upside down
To save you
To save you
I'm in the same house
But I'm feeling the cold
I recognise the streets
That I'm walking on
But the lights are flickering
And I'm struggling to breathe
When you say that friends don't lie
Let me ask you one more time
Hope you can see it from a thousand miles
Tell me would you help me would you
Go through the upside down
To save me to save me
And would you fight all the monsters that stand in your way
To save me to save me
Would you give your life if it means you can see me again
Would you turn this world upside down
To save me
To save me
I would go through the upside down
To save you to save you
And I would fight all the monsters that stand in my way
To save you to save you
I would give my life if it means I can see you again
I would turn the world upside down




To save you
To save you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Upside Down" by Julen convey a deep sense of love and loyalty towards someone who has been incredibly important in the singer's life. The opening lines express gratitude for this person being the first to care and show the singer what love truly is. However, despite this strong bond, there is a sense of distance and detachment, as if the two are existing in different dimensions. The singer acknowledges that when this person pulls away, it's not intentional, but it still causes pain and confusion.


The repeated lines about friends not lying and asking for help highlight the theme of trust and support in the relationship. The singer is willing to go to great lengths, even through the metaphorical "upside down," to save and protect this person. The mention of fighting monsters and turning the world upside down symbolizes the singer's determination to overcome any obstacles or challenges that may come their way in order to keep their loved one safe.


The second verse shifts perspective, with the singer feeling isolated and struggling despite being physically present in the same space. The imagery of flickering lights and difficulty breathing conveys a sense of anxiety and unease. Just like in the first verse, there is a plea for help and reassurance, questioning whether the other person would be willing to go to similar lengths to save and support the singer in return.


Overall, "Upside Down" is a poignant reflection on the complexities of love, friendship, and loyalty. It explores the willingness to sacrifice and endure hardships for the sake of someone deeply cherished, as well as the vulnerability and uncertainties that can arise in relationships. The song captures the depth of emotions and the lengths one would go to in order to protect and preserve a meaningful connection.
