Don't Look Down
Confronting Depths: Embracing Trust and Fear in Public Pool's Melody
Lyrics
Don't look down
Emphasizing avoidance of facing challenges or difficulties.
My fear of heights will start kicking in
Anticipating anxiety due to a fear of heights.
If I fall
Concern about the consequences of failure.
I'll fall forever
Implies an eternal or continuous state of falling if failure occurs.
I've always been
Describing a perpetual aspect of oneself.
So take me in
Requesting acceptance or inclusion.
And try to heal me
Asking for support or assistance.
With marble floors
Symbolizing luxury or opulence.
And painted ceilings
Representing beauty or grandeur.
And if I must trust in lies
Mentioning reliance on potentially false beliefs.
I hope you tell me
Desiring reassurance even if based on falsehoods.
That they're true
Acceptance of potentially deceptive truths.
Don't make a sound
Emphasizing silence to avoid danger or risk.
The slightest breath might just be our end
Highlighting extreme caution due to vulnerability.
My dear friend
Term of endearment indicating closeness.
We're going nowhere
Expressing a sense of stagnation or lack of progress.
We've always been
Reiterating a perpetual aspect of oneself.
So hold me close
Seeking comfort or intimacy.
And rub off on me
Desiring influence or assimilation of traits.
I'll drink your blood
Metaphorical reference, not literal.
And eat your body
Symbolic language, not to be taken literally.
And if I must trust in lies
Referencing reliance on potentially deceptive beliefs.
I hope you tell me
Desiring validation even if based on falsehoods.
That they're true
Acceptance of potentially deceptive truths.
I just got home
Indicating return to a familiar place.
And you're not there
Repetition emphasizing absence or loneliness.
And you're not there
-And you're not there
-Don't look down
Reiteration of the advice to avoid facing challenges.
My fear of heights will start kicking in
Anticipating anxiety due to a fear of heights (repeated).
If I fall
Concern about the consequences of failure (repeated).
I'll fall forever, I've always been
Implies an eternal or continuous state of falling if failure occurs (repeated).
So take me in
Requesting acceptance or inclusion (repeated).
And rub off on me
Desiring influence or assimilation of traits (repeated).
It's in your blood
Metaphorical reference, not literal (repeated).
It's in your body
Symbolic language, not to be taken literally (repeated).
And if I must trust in lies
Referencing reliance on potentially deceptive beliefs (repeated).
I hope you tell me
Desiring validation even if based on falsehoods (repeated).
That they're true
Acceptance of potentially deceptive truths (repeated).
