Down Under
NO!NO!NO! Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The moon light is shows
I feel our walls are craking
And were so close to fall
I hear the night is calling out
We are only what we feel
And turn it into something real

Moonlight breaks the crack of dawn
Breaking us into seperate parts
On the sunslight it show
I feel our shadows fading
And were so far from home
I hear the morning calling out

We are only what we feel
Yerning for something real
The moonlight breaks the crack of dawn
Tweaking us into different parts

Whats that sound i hear down under
Is it your heart is it just thunder
Whats that sound i hear down under
Is it your heart is it just thunder
Is it your heart is it just thunder

We are only what we feel
And turn it into something real
Moonlight breaks the crack of dawn
Breaking us into seperate parts

And we are only what we feel
Yerning for something real
The moonlight breaks the crack of dawn
Tweaking us into different parts





Whats that sound i hear down under

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of NO!NO!NO!'s song Down Under speak to the experience of feeling cracks in the walls of a relationship as the night settles in. The moonlight serves as a symbolic representation of this shift in the atmosphere, as it both breaks the darkness of dawn and breaks apart the individuals within the relationship. The lyrics suggest that the couple has become distant from one another, feeling far from home and fading into the shadows. However, the song also suggests that the couple is yearning for connection and striving to turn their feelings into something real.


The repetition of the phrase "we are only what we feel" speaks to the idea that emotions define us as individuals and create the reality of our relationships. The question "what's that sound I hear down under?" is a metaphorical inquiry into the state of the couple's hearts. Is it the sound of their hearts beating in unison, or is it the sound of the looming storm of a strained connection? The final line "is it your heart is it just thunder" implies that the answer remains ambiguous and unclear.

The song gives me goosebumps and all the feels, especially when combined with the words of our favourite villain, Niklaus Mikaelson.
