Long Way Home
25 - Daniel Licht & Jon Licht Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're all alone
There's nothing left
But a place call home
You're worrying sick
You might not make it
There's so much noise
It's getting darker now
It's getting darker now
It's getting darker now
And all you hear were lullaby
It's a long way home
And all I see is darkness
An angel in a dark dress
Don't you leave me here
It's a long way home
And all I see is darkness
I'm in a seal of darkness
So don't you leave me here
So don't you leave me here
So don't you leave me...
The cold floor
Press on your face
You ask yourself
What is this place?
A place within
Aren't what they seen
Eternity
To haunt your dreams
It's getting darker now
It's getting darker now
It's getting darker now
And all you hear were lullaby
It's a long way home
And all I see is darkness
An angel in a dark dress
Don't you leave me here
It's a long way home
And all I see is darkness
I'm in a seal of darkness
So don't you leave me here
So don't you leave me here
So don't you leave me here
It's getting darker now
It's getting darker now
It's getting darker now
And all you hear were lullaby
It's getting darker now
It's getting darker now
It's getting darker now
And all you hear were lullaby
It's a long way home
And all I see is darkness
An angel in a dark dress
Don't you leave me here
It's a long way home
And all I see is darkness
I'm in a seal of darkness
So don't you leave me here
So don't you leave me here
So don't you leave me here

Line by Line Meaning
It's getting dark
The surroundings are becoming darker
You're all alone
One is solitary, with no one else around to provide company
There's nothing left
There are no more available options
But a place call home
The only comforting familiarity is one's dwelling
You're worrying sick
There is an overwhelming feeling of concern and distress
You might not make it
The possibility of not succeeding is present
There's so much noise
There is a great deal of commotion and sound
You just can't take it
The noise becomes too overwhelming and unbearable
It's getting darker now
The atmosphere is continuing to become dimmer
And all you hear were lullaby
The only sound that can be heard is that of a gentle song
It's a long way home
The journey to the place of comfort is lengthy
And all I see is darkness
Everything around is blanketed in absence of light
An angel in a dark dress
A supernatural protector, disguised in garments of darkness
Don't you leave me here
Remain by my side and do not depart
I'm in a seal of darkness
Stuck in an enclosure that is void of illumination
So don't you leave me here
Please do not abandon me in this situation
The cold floor
The surface beneath is frigid
Press on your face
The weight of the ground pushes against the face
You ask yourself
One is questioning their circumstances
What is this place?
One is unsure of their location
A place within
An internalized location
Aren't what they seen
The expectations were not fulfilled
Eternity
A state of seemingly endless time
To haunt your dreams
A source of distress that appears in one's subconscious
So don't you leave me here
Please do not forsake me
And all you hear were lullaby
All that can be heard is the same gentle song
