Won't Be Coming Home
Unveiling Unseen Desires: Golden Smog's Journey Beyond Familiar Borders
Lyrics
He is reaching up for climbing
Desire to ascend or progress
Ropes hanging down below
Opportunities or paths available
I see the children smiling
Observing happiness in others
No need to let it show
Suppressing personal emotions
I know, I won't be coming home
Realization of not returning home
No more
Absence of future returns home
The street in sidewalk borders
Streets define boundaries
Stretch out beyond the scenes
Scenes expanding beyond normal view
The sweet and dark emotions
Contrasting emotions experienced daily
Every day hopes and dreams
Hopes and aspirations in daily life
My God, I know who's waiting
Awareness of someone waiting
Beneath the bedroom floor
Anticipation in someone's eyes
Her eyes anticipating
Striving to meet expectations
I'm reaching every move
Unavoidable actions or decisions
I know, I won't be coming home
Certainty of not returning home
No more
Confirmation of no more homecoming
All I ever wanted
Longing for a change or departure
Was to turn from my side
Desire to distance from past
All I ever wanted
Yearning for separation
Was to turn from my side
Repeated longing for detachment
The rake is scratching harder
Intrusive or persistent discomfort
The half drawn window shade
Partial concealment or obscurity
Like any empty memory
Fading or diminishing memories
The colors seem to fade
Loss of vibrancy or significance
My God, I know who's waiting
Recognition of waiting anticipation
Beneath the bedroom floor
Anticipating past shared moments
Remember summer showers
Recollection of nostalgic events
Outside the cabin walls
Memories beyond confinement
I know, I won't be coming home
Assurance of no future home return
No more
Emphasizing the lack of homecoming
