Lyrics
They say that hearts are just beasts trapped in a cage
Hearts are compared to beasts confined in a cage, symbolizing restrained emotions.
Nobody told me if they got out they would rampage
The consequences when emotions are released unexpectedly are not commonly acknowledged.
Oh sit and toil boy regret always comes to late
Reflecting on regret and the realization that it often arises too late to amend.
Isn't it funny how someone you loved you could now hate
Expressing the ironic shift from love to hate towards someone once cherished.
'Cause I had a home in your heart
Referencing a past sense of belonging or comfort in the person's heart.
What have I done here?
A rhetorical question expressing remorse or confusion about past actions.
Burnt it all down without a thought
Destroying everything thoughtlessly, possibly indicating a relationship's destruction.
Could you forgive me dear?
Seeking forgiveness from the beloved for the inflicted damage.
Let's go home
An urging to return to a place of comfort or familiarity, metaphorically termed as "home."
Let's go home
Repetition emphasizing the desire to return to a sense of belonging.
Even if it is just rubble and dirt
Acceptance of a damaged or altered version of what was once comforting.
I find myself in the bottom of the deepest bottles
Using alcohol ("deepest bottles") as an escape from emotional distress.
It's oh so comfortable there with my troubles
Comfort is found in drowning out troubles with alcohol.
Although they try say time heals everything
An acknowledgment of the belief that time can heal, yet personal experience suggests otherwise.
I'm yet to see it have any impact on my well being
Personal skepticism about the efficacy of time in healing emotional wounds.
'Cause I had a home in your heart
A repetition emphasizing the previous sense of belonging that has been lost.
What have I done here?
Reiteration of remorse or confusion regarding past actions.
Burnt it all down without a thought
Continued regret for thoughtlessly destroying what was once cherished.
Could you forgive me dear?
Pleading for forgiveness for the damage caused.
Let's go home
Reiteration of the desire to return to a place of comfort.
Let's go home
Repeated plea to return despite the damaged state.
Even if it is just rubble and dirt
Acceptance of returning to a place even if it's in ruins, as long as it feels like home.
Let's go home
Repeated urging to return to a familiar place or state.
Let's go home
Emphasizing the desire to return despite the damaged condition.
Even if it is just rubble and dirt
Reiteration of the willingness to return to a place despite its ruined state.
