## Background

On a Twitter Q&A, a fan asked Allie what is the meaning behind "Downtown.” Allie replied and said, “Downtown is another surrender kind of lyric, it speaks to a time in my life when everything romantic was just about infatuation, and anyone that I spent time with or had these little relationships with just treated me poorly, and I liked it.”

## Lyrics

* Final
* "Offering" Demo

**[Verse 1]**

Love is a condition of the head

Wanna push a button and reset

But you're still up in my skirt

I thought if you had a piece of me

I could keep the other 2 or 3

But now that's not how it works

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I shouldn't be here right now

But you got me figured out

Pushing my pieces round, I know this game

And I need a miracle

To break from this ritual

Till then I'll be saying the same thing

**[Chorus]**

Take me downtown

Use my body all night

Make me feel like last time

Make it taste like love

Take me downtown

Yours until my heart dies

Give it up one last time

Give it up for love

**[Post-Chorus]**

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

**[Verse 2]**

Love is a condition of the head

There is no prescription to forget

So you're all over my brain

You're the blue fix that makes me run

I'll do anything to get me some

Stop me before it's too late

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I shouldn't be here right now

But you got me figured out

Pushing my pieces round, I know this game

And I need a miracle

To break from this ritual

Till then I'll be saying the same thing

**[Chorus]**

Take me downtown

Use my body all night

Make me feel like last time

Make it taste like love

Take me downtown

Yours until my heart dies

Give it up one last time

Give it up for love

**[Post-Chorus]**

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

**[Bridge]**

Nothing in this room has changed but us

I still want a pin that I can't touch

I feel it scratching me out

**[Chorus]**

Take me downtown

Use my body all night

Make me feel like last time

Make it taste like love

Take me downtown

Yours until my heart dies

Give it up one last time

Give it up for love

**[Post-Chorus]**

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

**[Verse 1]**

Nothing in this room has changed but us

I still hate the sheets you fucking love

I feel them scratching my back

Must've been the wine that did me in

'Cause I let your fingers cut my skin

You're making my body ask

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Should I be here right now?

Have you got me figured me out?

Can we still found the cloud we slipped down from?

Do I need a miracle to break from this ritual?

Cause you got me screaming out loud

**[Chorus]**

Take this offering

Use my body all night

Don't it feel like last time

Don't it taste like love

Take this offering

Yours until my heart dies

Give it up one last time

Give it up for love

**[Post-Chorus]**

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

**[Verse 2]**

Love is a condition of the head

There is no prescription to forget

So you're all over my brain

And I'm the only drug that makes you run

You'll do anything to get you some

So come here before it's too late

Oh, oh

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Should I be here right now?

Have you got me figured me out?

Can we still found the cloud we slipped down from

Do I need a miracle

To break from this ritual?

Cause you got me screaming out loud

**[Chorus]**

Take this offering

Use my body all night

Don't it feel like last time

Don't it taste like love

Take this offering

Yours until my heart dies

Give it up one last time

Give it up for love

**[Post-Chorus]**

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

**[Bridge]**

Nothing in this room has changed but us

I still hate the sheets you fucking love

I feel them scratching my back

**[Chorus]**

Take this offering

Use my body all night

Don't it feel like last time

Don't it taste like love

Take this offering

Yours until my heart dies

Give it up one last time

Give it up for love

**[Post-Chorus]**

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up

Ooh ooh ooh

Give it up, give it up
