Come Home
Longing Echoes: Unraveling the Emotions of Nightshift's 'Come Home'
Lyrics
I just want to know
The speaker expresses a desire for understanding.
If the time we spend together
Questioning whether time spent together increases feelings of loneliness.
Leaves us more alone
Wondering if their togetherness results in increased feelings of isolation.
This feeling I can't shake
Describing an intense, persistent emotion.
Strewn out and I can't fake
Feeling scattered and unable to pretend.
The way it haunts my mind
Expressing how this feeling continuously troubles the mind.
That night in mid November
Referring to a specific night in November.
Promised that we'd remember
Recalling a promise made on that particular night to remember.
Reasons to keep the embers
Emphasizing reasons to maintain passion or interest.
Burning bright
Metaphorically, keeping the fire burning bright symbolizes maintaining the relationship.
I just want to know
Reiterating the desire for understanding.
If the time we spend together
Questioning the impact of time spent together on feelings of isolation.
Leaves us more alone
Repeating concern about increased loneliness despite being together.
I'm scared of crashing down
Expressing fear of a sudden collapse or breakdown.
As you fly on towards another
Partner moving forward while the speaker feels left behind.
Won't you come home
Directly pleading for the partner to return home.
Was passion that we found
Asking if the intense feelings of passion experienced were merely temporary.
A dream to hold us down
Wondering if their shared dream was strong enough to endure.
The truth can take its toll
Acknowledging that facing the truth might be emotionally taxing.
That night in mid November
Referencing the same specific night, emphasizing the promise to maintain the relationship's fire.
Promised that we'd remember
Recollection of the commitment to hold onto reasons to stay together.
Reasons to keep the embers
Reiterating the importance of maintaining passion or interest.
Burning bright
Continuing the metaphor of keeping the fire burning bright in the relationship.
I just want to know
Repeated desire for understanding.
If the time we spend together

Leaves us more alone

As you fly on towards another
Partner moving forward while the speaker feels left behind.
Won't you come home
Direct plea for the partner's return.
I'm falling in not out
Expressing falling deeper into feelings rather than distancing from them.
Splitting from all my doubts
Overcoming uncertainties and deciding to stay committed.
I'll be right here
Assurance of being present and committed.
I feel it in my core
Strongly feeling something at their very core.
I've never felt so sure
Confidence in a particular feeling or belief.
I'm still right here
Reassurance of staying steadfast.
I just want to know
Repeated desire for understanding.
