Oh, oh, oh
I never thought that it'd be easy
'Cause we both so distant now
And the walls are closing in on us
And we're wondering how
No one has a solid answer
We're just walking in the dark
And you can see the look on my face
It just tears me apart
So we fight through the hurt
And we cry, and cry, and cry, and cry
Then we live and we learn
And we try, and try, and try, and try
So it's up to you and it's up to me
That we meet in the middle
On our way back down to earth
Down to earth, down to earth
On our way back down to earth
Ooh, oh, oh, ooh
Mama, you were always somewhere
And Daddy I live outta town
So tell me how could I ever be normal some how
You tell me this is for the best
So tell me why am I in tears, whoa
So far away and now I just need you here
So we'll fight through the hurt
And we'll cry, and cry, and cry, and cry
Then we live and we learn
And we try, and try, and try, and try
So it's up to you and it's up to me
That we meet in the middle
On our way back down to earth
Down to earth, down to earth
On our way back down to earth
Ooh, oh, ooh, oh, ooh
We felt so far away from where we used to be
And now we're standing, and where do we go
When there's no road to get to your heart?
Let's start over again
So it's up to you and it's up to me
That we meet in the middle
On our way back down to earth
Down to earth, down to earth
On our way back down to earth
I never thought that it'd be easy
'Cause we both so distant now
And the walls are closing in on us
And we're wondering how
I never thought that it'd be easy
'Cause we both so distant now
And the walls are closing in on us

And we try, and try, and try, and try
So it's up to you and it's up to me

Down to earth, down to earth

watching a divorce is one of the hardest things ever
I agree with tugboatlove1, I definitely think its about a divorce...
"So its up to to you, and its up to me that we meet in the middle on our way back down to earth."
to me that line is about his mother, his father, and himself deciding where they should meet up so justin can go with his mother or father, depending on which one he's with at that time. it's up to him and it's up to them.
it's at that short time when him and both of his parents are in the same place, and to him it feels like they're a normal, down to earth family.
im probably wrong, but that's what i got out of it.

I think this kid is going to be a mega-star like MJ was.
