ONE DIRECTION

- Long Way Down Lyrics

[Verse 1: Niall]
We made a fire, went down in the flames
We sailed an ocean and drowned in the waves
Built a cathedral, but we never prayed
We had it all, yeah and we walked away

[Chorus: Harry]
Point of no return and now it's just too late to turn around
I try to forgive you but I struggle cause I don't know how
We built it up so high and now I'm falling
It's a long way down, it's a long way down from here

[Verse 2: Louis]
We had a mountain, but took it for granted
We had a spaceship, but we couldn't land it
We found an island, but we got stranded
We had it all yeah, who could've planned it?

[Chorus: Liam]
Point of no return and now it's just too late to turn around
I try to forgive you, but I'm struggling cause I don't know how
We built it up so high and now I'm falling
It's a long way down from here, such a long way down from here
It's a long way down, it's a long way down
Such a long way down, it's a long way down, it's a long way down

What is the meaning behind Long Way Down lyrics?


When we take a closer look to the meaning, the One Direction song 'Long Way Down' illustrates a very strong and promising relationship that broke up eventually, and the metaphors used to depict this are building a cathedral but never having a prayer, putting up a mountain and taking it for granted, and discovering an island but getting stuck. The lyrics convey a sense of hopelessness, fighting for forgiveness, and the emotional slide from peak to valley that is the long and tough journey downwards emphasized. Long way down lyrics bring to the fore about destroying love and relationships along with the whole range of feelings like despair, reflection, nostalgia, and angst. Besides, the song rings the bells of loss and regret very loudly; it also talks about the fight for forgiveness and the damage of unfulfilled potential. The lyrics harbor the themes of loss and regret that could be a need for parental guidance for the younger kids. Nevertheless, there is nothing that is strong language or violence or sexually explicit content that requires a higher rating.
