Home is Where You Go to Die
Journey of Loss and Redemption: Home's Poignant Tale
Lyrics
You only hurt so much when you hurt the ones you love
You experience intense pain when you harm those you love.
I’ve never felt such loss when I lost the ones I love
I've felt profound grief when I lost the ones I love.
I want to fill your lungs with the smoke of a million things I’ve lost
Expresses a desire to make someone breathe in the consequences of numerous losses.
You’ve only found someone until they’re finally gone
Relationships end when the person is no longer present.
I want to fill your lungs with tar, smoke of a million things I’ve lost
Reiteration of the desire to make someone inhale the consequences of personal losses.
I want to wake up and be free, all of those things I’ve lost and need
Expresses a longing to be free from the burden of lost things and needs.
The things that brought me home are the things that made me whole
Things that brought comfort and completeness are associated with home.
It’s always on my mind that it’s finally time to go
Constantly thinking that it's time to leave.
The only things I need, the ones I love, the air I breathe
Essentials in life: loved ones, and the air necessary for survival.
I finally believe in all those things I fail to see
Developing belief in things previously overlooked or misunderstood.
A place to lay my bones to decay
Home as a final resting place for one's bones.
A source of pain long betrayed
Home is a source of enduring pain and betrayal.
The times I’ve laid in agony I pity me
Reflecting on times of suffering with self-pity.
The war is waged all by myself it never fades
Internal struggles persist without resolution.
The love I’ve shared it goes nowhere, necessity
Love shared seems futile and necessary.
Home is where I go to die, I’m well aware
Home is acknowledged as the place where the end, possibly death, is inevitable.
The bottom feeds on broken dreams, they’re left for dead
Broken dreams are consumed by despair, left without hope.
Signs all point to where it ends, so finally
Signs indicating the conclusion point towards the end, suggesting acceptance.
I lick my wounds down to the bone, constantly
Lingering pain is endured down to the bone continuously.
Home is where I go to die, I’m well aware
Reiteration that home is the place where acceptance of one's demise is clear.
