Unveiling Hidden Truths: Echoes of Betrayal in Reptile Room's 'Home'
Lyrics
Something slipped inside my halo
Feeling a disturbance or change within my inner sanctity or personal space.
Putting me on like you never did
Behaving towards me in a way that is unfamiliar or unexpected.
Something's gonna come full circle
Suggesting that a situation or event is completing a cycle or coming back around.
Something's gonna break my head
Anticipating a significant challenge or impact on my thoughts or mind.
No one's gonna let you leave
Assuring that there will be no permission for departure.
I told you, no one's gonna let you be
Reiterating the impossibility of being allowed to exist freely.
And all of the lies you ever told to me
Highlighting the falsehoods told to me in the past.
Are gonna come right back home to see you fall
Warning that the consequences of those lies will return and witness your downfall.
One day
Indicating that this reckoning will happen at some point in the future.
I've been over
Expressing having moved beyond or overcome something.
The wrecking sum
Referring to a destructive total or sum, possibly symbolizing past challenges.
Hold me
Asking for support or comfort.
Hard to because
Expressing difficulty in providing support because you are consistently absent.
You're never home
Not being present at home, either physically or emotionally.
I've been turning over
Reflecting on internal thoughts and considerations.
Inside the throne
Suggesting an internal struggle or conflict within a position of authority.
Baby when you come
Anticipating your return.
You're coming home
Affirming the expectation of your return home.
You're coming home
Repeating the certainty of your return home.
Tell me something you've been hiding
Requesting disclosure of hidden information or feelings.
Tell me what you want to say
Inviting you to express yourself honestly.
Well I've been tossed and turned and tabled
Describing being subjected to turmoil and obstacles.
Something's getting in my way
Noticing an obstruction or hindrance in the way.
One day
Reiterating the expectation of a future reckoning.
I've been over
Reiterating the sense of having moved beyond or overcome something.
The wrecking sum
Recalling a destructive total or sum, possibly from the past.
Hold me
Seeking support or comfort.
Hard to because
Expressing difficulty in providing support due to consistent absence.
You're never home
Highlighting the perpetual absence, making it challenging to hold onto.
I've been turning over
Continuing to reflect on internal thoughts and considerations.
Inside the throne
Suggesting an ongoing internal struggle or conflict within a position of authority.
Baby, when you come
Affirming the anticipation of your return.
You're coming home
Repeating the certainty of your return home.
