Lyrics

I've got fire for a heart


I'm not scared of the dark
You've never seen it look so easy
I got a river for a soul
And baby, you're a boat
Baby, you're my only reason

If I didn't have you, there would be nothing left


The shell of a man that could never be his best
If I didn't have you, I'd never see the sun
You taught me how to be someone, yeah

All my life, you stood by me


When no one else was ever behind me
All these lights, they can't blind me
With your love, nobody can drag me down
All my life, you stood by me
When no one else was ever behind me
All these lights, they can't blind me
With your love, nobody can drag me down

Nobody, nobody
Nobody can drag me down
Nobody, nobody
Nobody can drag me down

I got fire for a heart


I'm not scared of the dark
You've never seen it look so easy
I got a river for a soul
And baby, you're a boat
Baby, you're my only reason

If I didn't have you there would be nothing left (nothing left)


The shell of a man who could never be his best (be his best)
If I didn't have you, I'd never see the sun (see the sun)
You taught me how to be someone, yeah

All my life, you stood by me


When no one else was ever behind me
All these lights, they can't blind me
With your love, nobody can drag me down

Nobody, nobody
Nobody can drag me down
Nobody, nobody
Nobody can drag me

All my life, you stood by me


When no one else was ever behind me
All these lights, they can't blind me
With your love, nobody can drag me down
All my life, you stood by me
When no one else was ever behind me
All these lights, they can't blind me
With your love, nobody can drag me down

Nobody, nobody
Nobody can drag me down (yeah)
Nobody, nobody
Nobody can drag me down
Nobody, nobody
Nobody can drag me down
Nobody, nobody
Nobody can drag me down

Meaning

The meaning of the song Drag Me Down telling about when someone is
always with and loves you no power in the whole universe can stop you. This
song can be said about 1D gratitude towards his fans. The fans who have always
supported and loved 1D are proven in the lyrics “All my life, you stood by me,
when no one else was ever behind me.” And in the lyrics “I’ve got fire for a heart,
I’m not scared of the dark. You’ve never seen it look so easy.” Stated about how
much the 1D personnel love what they are doing now. They are not afraid to take
risks and even break records. They find their job easy because they love it. In this
song 1D also said that with the love he has from his fans, no one can bring him
down.

Opinion

I like the song, because in my opinion the song gives motivation that
having people who support us will make us a strength so that under no
circumstances can anyone bring us down.
