Up & Down
Scent Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

La lalalalaa lalalalaa lalalalalalalalalalalalalalaaa lalalalalaaa

Girl who loves to dream
Lives her life to the extreme with adrenaline
Never had a life
And she plays hard through the night
In the game of up and down
La lalalalaa lalalalaa lalalalalalalalalalalalalalaaa lalalalalaaa

Girl who longs to explore
With the fruit down to the core
But she wanted more yes she wanted more
If you're gonna crash and burn
Be prepared to take your turn in the game of up and down
Yeahh up and down

La lalalalaa lalalalaa lalalalalalalalalalalalalalaaa lalalalalaaa
La lalalalaa lalalalaa lalalalalalalalalalalalalalaaa up & down

From light's path you strayed
Your dreams will show you the way
Time will take your fears away





La lalalalaa lalalalaa lalalalalalalalalalalalalalaaa up and down

I'm a metalhead and I keep coming back to this song, can't remember when I heard it for the first time but it's always on the loop for a while once I find it again. Makes me feel good and santimenta at the same time.
