She Likes The World Upside Down - Free Download Soon! Lyrics & Song Meaning Included.

One of the finished tunes on this upcoming After Life EP is called "She Likes The World Upside Down".

 
Please note that this song was not directed towards anyone and no one in particular was in mind when writing it.  Ask Joey Jeff :) haha. 

With that said, I wanted to give you guys a quick description of the meaning/message of the song.  I wrote it in the perspective of observing a beautiful girl with big city dreams. Beautiful on the outside, but ugly on the inside.  Maybe she was ugly because she fell into bad temptation, maybe because it was her willingness to do any and everything to travel the short road (not pay her dues), or maybe just naivety to think she was "the next big thing" and that success, acclaim and love would all fall innocently in her lap. ETC ETC.  you guys get the picture :)  

Open for your own interpretation.  

Basically, the ugliness and lack of self image she had, mixed with the "willingness" to do ANYTHING to make it BIG blended perfectly with how a Big City chews those types up and spits them out.  Thousands of wannabe "models/actress" embark on this journey and, unfortunately, most lose their souls and identity in the process.  

This is her story from someone on the outside looking in.  

Lyrics:

Verse 1:
She has a hole in her belly, and a gun in her hand.
Her plans change like her taste for a woman or a man.
And she loves it that way.
but deep down she's just tryna be saved.
She gives her love away, as a way to wake up her senses.
And tells her story with every touch like a sentence.
All her beauty in a blink of an eye.  and I....................

(short refrain)

Verse 2:
City Lights she fights to get attention.
Dressed next to nothing did i mention.
She used to be pretty, but now scarred.
Her big city dreams have left her in the dark.
Small girl, big time dreams.
Learned everything ain't always what it seems.
But she'll be back, as a matter of fact............Chin up girl.

Chorus:
She Likes The World Upside Down (repeat 4x)
And Don't Give A Damn.  She Don't Give A Damn.  

Verse 3:
Her tattoos became resolutions.
Constant reminders that the truth is out there.
But she looks in all the wrong places, the strangest faces is all she see's. 
She's wasted, in a city that chewed her up and spit her out.
Now a Dime a Dozen
She used to be someone.
But now she's nothing.......nothing

Chorus:
She Likes The World Upside Down (repeat 4x)
And Don't Give A Damn.  She Don't Give A Damn.

Break Down Instrumental & Build Up:

Chorus:
She Likes The World Upside Down (repeat 4x)
And Don't Give A Damn.  She Don't Give A Damn
