Lyrics for Down as interpreted by BrandNew1208

Down Lyrics
The drops of rain they fall all over
This awkward silence makes me crazy
The glow inside burns light upon her
I'll try to kiss you if you let me
(this can't be the end)

Tidal waves they rip right through me
Tears from eyes worn cold and sad
Pick me up now, I need you so bad

Down down down down [x4]
It gets me so
Down down down down [x4]
It gets me so

Your vows of silence fall all over
The look in your eyes makes me crazy
I feel the darkness break upon her
I'll take you over if you let me
(You did this)

Tidal waves they rip right through me
Tears from eyes worn cold and sad
Pick me up now, I need you so bad.

Down down down down [x4]
It gets me so
Down down down down [x4]
It gets me so

I think this song is about a relationship and the girl wants to break up but the boy is desperatly trying to hold on to it.The lyrics in the song are the thoughts that are going through the boys mind.

I absolutely love this song, it's probably my favourite song on the album. I'm not saying it's the best (but it is one of the best) but it's my favourite because I can completely relate to it. This song really means somthing to me and whenever I listen to it it really makes me think, and although t calms me and relaxes me, it can really bring a tear to my eye. The selftitled Blink 182 album is absolutely fucking amazing!

They're just a guy and a girl sitting in a car while it's raining and he's trying to kiss her and wants to but he doesnt know how she'll react. It's just like an awkward scilence. I think he's also feeling down at the time lol obviously.

I love Blink 182 but this isn't one of my favourite songs by them. However, I love the haunting bits at the end of each verse:

"This can't be the end" and "You did this"

Gets me every time.

the song is about a breakup and he doesnt want it to be over but he realizes that the end is inevitable

"this cant be the end" is the guy denying wat he knows is happening

This is the best Blink song I have ever heard
I think the song is about a boy and a girl in a car in the rain and she wants to break up with with but does not say anything
He however understands her silence completely and knows that she is going to leave him soon and he does not want it to end
All of his emotions are coming up at once and he feels lust, passion, love, hate, sadness...etc.
It's basically what is going on inside his head at that moment in time
Beautiful song

I think this song is about his relationship ending with his girlfriend. She seems angry at him for something that he can't seem to get her to forgive.

Does anyone know why Mark has an upside down cross on his bass in the video?

every lyric in this song is perfect.
the drums, the bass, the guitar: the sound is perfect.
makes me happy to know that some bands know how to fucking play a good song.

I love this song! It reminds me of all those intense emotions everyone has when they're teenagers. OK, so I'm a lot older now. I get the feeling that he feels more intense about this love than she does.

Is it just me, or does it sound like Tom has a lisp in this song?

*You guys are all right (there is a small scale meaning and a large scale meaning)

1) The car scene where the guy wants to kiss the girl and doesn't know how she'll respond
2) The akward start of a teenage relationship where a guy is affraid to take a chance with a girl because he is scared of how she might react

This song gives me a tingly feeling. It best describes the relationship between two teenagers falling in love, both not sure if what they are feeling is right and if this is what they need.
