Lyrics
I don't recognize these roads
The speaker feels unfamiliar with their current path or surroundings.
And every mile behind me reminds me of your ghost
Every distance covered reminds the speaker of someone who's no longer present.
I can't leave myself alone
The speaker can't find solace or peace within themselves.
But I've got nowhere else to go
Despite feeling unsettled, there's no alternative destination for the speaker.
What if I lose it all
The fear of losing everything occupies the speaker's thoughts.
What if I'm a lost cause
Questioning whether the speaker is beyond help or redemption.
What if I don't make it home to the things that I know
Concerns about not being able to return to familiar aspects of life.
What if I lose it all
Reiterating the fear of losing everything, possibly emphasizing material or personal loss.
There's a man beyond these bones
Reference to a deeper, emotional self that feels hollow or empty.
And I feel his hollow heartbeat echo through the halls
Sensing a lack of emotional fulfillment or connection, feeling detached.
I can't make myself at home
The inability to find comfort or familiarity in the current environment.
But I've got nowhere else to go
Similar to line 4, feeling displaced without any better options.
What if I lose it all
Reiteration of the fear of losing everything, emphasizing the haunting uncertainty.
What if I'm a lost cause
Repeating the doubt regarding the speaker's worth or potential.
What if I don't make it home to the things that I know
Concerns about not being able to return to familiar aspects of life, repeating line 7.
What if I lose it all
Once again, fearing the loss of everything important.
What if I had it all
Contemplating the hypothetical scenario of possessing everything.
What if I had a cause
Imagining having a purpose or reason to strive for.
What if I had a home but I wouldn't let go
Having a home but being unable to embrace or appreciate it.
Cause that's when I lost it all
Reflecting on a moment of realization or a critical turning point where everything was lost.
