Upside Down
lentra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Runnin' 'round my head and back around
I can't help but to feel it
Your psychic existence
Isn't it comedic, how we feel the distance?
And I just checked the time
Six hours gone by
These passin' road signs
Where you off to now?
Runnin' 'round my head and back around
Now it's like my head's stuck underground
How did you turn me upside down?
Got me all tangled up
I guess you had enough
There's not much to discuss
Now you're just someone
Who know? I've had it with you
So stuck in my moods
I'm splittin' in two
Where you off to now?
Runnin' 'round my head and back around
Now it's like my head's stuck underground
How did you turn me upside down?
In Lentra's song "Upside Down," the lyrics describe the confusion and frustration of the singer's emotional state. The lines "Where you off to now? Runnin' 'round my head and back around" suggest that the singer is preoccupied with someone, unable to escape their thoughts. The lyrics continue with "I can't help but to feel it, your psychic existence," which implies that there is some sort of connection between the singer and the person they are thinking about, even if that connection is only in the singer's mind.
Despite the connection, there is a sense of distance between the singer and the other person, as indicated by the line "Isn't it comedic, how we feel the distance?" The singer seems to be frustrated by this distance, checking the time and noting that "six hours [have] gone by," and observing "passin' road signs." This sense of being stuck or trapped is further emphasized with the line "Now it's like my head's stuck underground, how did you turn me upside down?"
The song seems to be a reflection on the singer's emotional turmoil, and the inability to escape from their own thoughts and feelings. The lines "Got me all tangled up, I guess you had enough, there's not much to discuss" suggest that there has been some sort of conflict between the singer and the other person they are thinking about, but that there is no resolution or closure. The final lines of the chorus repeat the same questions from the beginning, "Where you off to now? Runnin' 'round my head and back around," emphasizing the cyclical nature of the singer's thoughts and feelings.
