Going Down
Falling from Grace: Allison Moorer's Tale of Luck and Loss
Lyrics
Up 'til now my lucky stars shined brightest in the sky
Up 'til now, I've experienced good fortune and success.
I was living in the lap of the gods
I was living a life of luxury and comfort.
But miss fortune turned the tables and turned out all the light
However, a stroke of bad luck changed everything, leaving me in darkness.
Now there's no chance in hell I'll beat the odds
Now, I have very little chance of overcoming difficult circumstances.
I'm going down
I am descending into a difficult or unfavorable situation.
Going down
Continuation of the expression of descending into adversity.
Down down down
Emphasizing the downward spiral or descent.
I'm going down
Reiteration of the impending descent into trouble or misfortune.
Up 'til now I never looked at what was in the cards
Previously, I didn't consider the potential outcomes or consequences.
Played fast and loose,
I lived recklessly and carefree.
I didn't, didn't give a damn
I didn't care about the consequences.
But a joker who is wild like me can't beat the old graveyard
But someone unpredictable like me can't avoid a fatal outcome.
If he's staring at a dead man's hand
If faced with an inevitable failure or danger, there's no escape.
I'm going down
Repetition of the descent into a negative situation.
Going down
Continued expression of the descent or downfall.
Down down down
Reemphasizing the continuous decline or downfall.
Down down down down
Further emphasizing the intensification of the downfall.
I'm going down
Reiteration of the impending descent into trouble or misfortune.
Up 'til now the thought of losing didn't cross my mind
Previously, I never considered the possibility of losing.
It felt good, so good to gamble with my soul
I enjoyed taking risks with my life or essence.
But what was I a thinking why'd I lay it on the line
But why did I risk everything and put it all on the line?
Everybody, everybody one day has to fold
Everyone eventually faces defeat or failure.
I'm going down
Reiteration of the impending descent into trouble or misfortune.
Going down
Continuation of the expression of descending into adversity.
Down down down
Emphasizing the downward spiral or descent.
I'm going down
Reiteration of the impending descent into trouble or misfortune.
I'm going down
-Going down
Continuation of the expression of descending into adversity.
I lost this round
Acknowledgment of losing in this particular instance or situation.
I'm going down
Confirmation of the descent into difficulty or failure.
