Up and Down Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
The balance in her life feels off, like things are tipping. She’s watching someone closely, reading their expressions, but something feels off—like a warning sign. She’s been let down too many times, and her hopes have turned into pressure that’s making it hard for her to breathe.

[Pre-Chorus]
Her thoughts are a mess, and her view of things keeps flipping. Her mind and life are getting shaken up by this person.

[Chorus]
She’s constantly swinging between feeling great and feeling low, over and over again. Every part of her reacts strongly whenever she thinks about this person. The constant shift between highs and lows leaves her feeling dizzy. Even when she tries to resist or get away from it, she finds she just can’t escape how deeply she’s affected.

[Post-Chorus]
Being in love with this person gives her a strange sense of freedom, but it also makes her feel like she’s falling and losing control. Even though it’s overwhelming, she can’t bring herself to walk away.

[Verse 2]
These emotional ups and downs are making her feel dizzy and unstable. They hit her without warning and break her down. She’s trying not to lose herself, but there’s a part of her that’s starting to accept and even embrace the pain.

[Chorus]
She keeps going through emotional swings—up, down, and back again. Her whole body responds when she’s drawn toward this person. The back-and-forth makes her feel lost and off-balance. No matter how much she tries to fight it, she can’t seem to let go or escape their pull.

[Bridge]
She’s scared because she can’t figure out how deep her feelings go. The higher she falls for them, the more afraid she gets, so she clings tightly to them for stability.

[Chorus]
Her emotions go up and down nonstop, and she keeps coming back to the same place. Only this person can affect her in this way, and it’s hard to explain why. The constant switch between good and bad feelings leaves her dazed. Even though she’s afraid, she’s still putting everything on the line for them, again and again.

[Outro]
Loving this person makes her feel free in a strange way, like she’s floating. But even in that freedom, she’s trapped by her feelings and can’t break away.
