Don't Look Down
On The Last Day Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Who knew the answer? I'm dying to know.
Lies in the hearts of all who fail to show.
The slightest bit of what I've learned,
You'll hold my hand I'll pull you down!
I've lost it now, the sinner burns.

Take a look at all the beauty they have come to show.
Don't look down if you can hear the sound.
We'll celebrate goodbyes.
We've come so far this time.
Don't look down if you can hear the sound.
We'll celebrate goodbyes.
We've come so far this time.

Guarantee we're choking back our tears.
It guarantees their aware of our fears.
We're living far too long!
Don't hold my hand I'll pull you down.
Our hearts are scorched this time!
My heart is torn up.

Take a look at all the beauty they have come to show.
(Don't look down) don't look down if you can hear the sound (hear the sound)
We'll celebrate goodbyes.
We've come so far this time.
(Don't look down) don't look down if you can hear the sound (hear the sound)
We'll celebrate goodbyes.
We've come so far this time.

We failed to show,
You failed to grow.
We failed to pull through with all that you've done.

The fear of knowing,
True colors showing.
The fear of knowing,
True colors showing.

I've found my true color.
The story of my life.
The earth is growing still.
The strong admitted out.
I never thought I'd see this day.
They hear the qauying in the sky.
While the purpose it has died.
When this darkness unfurles,
It takes to the world.

Take a look at all the beauty they have come to show.
(Don't look down) don't look down if you can hear the sound (hear the sound)
We'll celebrate goodbyes.
We've come so far this time.
(Don't look down) don't look down if you can hear the sound (hear the sound)
We'll celebrate goodbyes.
We've come so far this time.





We failed to pull through with all that you've done.
