Finding Redemption: Unveiling the Depths of Self-Destruction in 'Home'
Lyrics
You've got your self-destructive ways
You exhibit self-destructive behavior
As you stare at the snow in a haze
Contemplating life while gazing at snow in a daze
Because what's wrong in this whole world
Perceiving fundamental issues in the world
Can't be solved by leaving it
Leaving is not a solution to global problems
And you'd better not get it wrong
Warning against misunderstanding
The question of where it is you belong
Pondering your place in the world
Because we all know the truth
Emphasizing a shared understanding of truth
And the answer is inside of you
Finding answers within oneself
Now I think we've heard all the lies
Rejecting falsehoods
And your attempts at a casual disguise
Highlighting failed attempts at concealment
But what about the rest of the world
Concern about how others perceive you
Do they know of your love for death
Questioning if others know about a fascination with death
You've got your self-destructive ways
Reiterating self-destructive tendencies
As you stare at the snow in a haze
Revisiting contemplation amid snowy surroundings
You've got only one shot at this
Emphasizing the singular chance at life
So why am I the one reminding you
Questioning why the responsibility falls on the speaker
I wish you could see through my eyes
Desiring understanding from the speaker's perspective
Between the veil of all your lies
Mentioning a barrier of lies that need to be seen through
We all want you back again
Expressing a collective desire for the individual's return
But for now we just can't take it
Temporary inability to cope with the current situation
It's time to
Indicating a shift in focus
It's time to come home again
Stressing the need to return home
So you better bring him home
Directing the return of an unspecified person
Now I suppose the truth is too hard
Suggesting difficulty in accepting the truth
And the locks on the gates are too far
Pointing out obstacles and distance
If you even could make it there
Raising doubts about reaching a destination
Would the key be able to save you
Questioning the efficacy of a potential solution
All the lies and truths in the world
Highlighting the coexistence of lies and truths
Are alive and begin to unfurl
Imagining the revelation and unfolding of truths
And Death's a nasty friend
Personifying death as an unsettling companion
But one we'll all meet in the end
Recognizing the inevitability of death
It's time to
Reiterating the call to return home
It's time to come home again
Emphasizing the urgency of coming home
It's time to
Repeating the plea to return
It's time to come home again
Stressing the importance of coming home
You better bring him home
Directing the return of an unspecified person
It's time to
Reiterating the call to return home
It's time to come home again
Emphasizing the urgency of coming home
It's time to
Repeating the plea to return
It's time to come home again
Stressing the importance of coming home
You better bring him home
Directing the return of an unspecified person
