In the opening lines, Pollock describes the contradiction of each day being both hellish and heavenly. The lyric "My focus disappears, my mind inhales, hypothesis" reflects a sense of being overwhelmed by thoughts and uncertainties.[Pre-Chorus]

Overall, Upside Down delves into the complexities of perception and self-awareness, urging listeners to embrace the paradoxes within their own lives.Upside Down Song Lyrics
Upside Down by Emma Pollock
My focus disappears, my mind inhales, hypothesis
Rocks and thieves, you know, they masquerade this new ideas
And as the thunder peels, the damage done becomes revealed
Can only move by standing still
Forget the views beyond the hill
You've got this upside down
So pour it out
Don't like to say hello but love if you might help me makе it so
I hate the introduction but still revеl in a deconstruction
Cause you've got less to talk about but I prefer to walk about
Give the moments on the stage before we turn another page
Can only move by standing still
Forget the views beyond the hill
You've got this upside down
So pour it out
Too many numbers
And not enough poetry
I let them fight to the death
But will they be the death, the death of me?
The doors we leave the jar just let the breeze in from afar
Reminds me of the dalliance that I enjoy with second chances
My legs still perceive a willing thought as well, they just bury me
Cause every day is new, you see it grows another branch of my future tree
Only move by standing still
Forget the views beyond the hill
You've got this upside down
So pour it out
Can only move by standing still
Forget the views beyond the hill
You've got this upside down
Too many numbers
But will they be the death, the death of me?
