Moments
A Hero Next Door Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
found myself thinking that I
hadn't thought of you today.
It's been years since I had noticed,
but all that shit came flooding back
what time and distance washed away.
I'm really not like this.
I've never felt so good,
if only for a moment.
And these moments don't last long enough to live.
I'm lost and all alone,
is anybody out there,
to replace this piece of home that I call you?
Didn't mean to let it,
Was overwhelemd to dwell in
That part of you that still remained.
So next time that I'm loaded,
I'll drink until I'm sober,
and never think of you again.
I'm really not like this,
it started with just one kiss,
I'd do this all again.
I've held this in for so long,
I've held this in for so long.
Without you,
Without you,
It's useless trying to explain what I don't understand.
Without you,
Without you,
Don't bother trying to explain what I won't understand.
Without you,
Without you,
I'm still here!
The song "Moments" by A Hero Next Door talks about the memories of an old flame that resurface unexpectedly. The lyrics begin with the singer admitting to being under the influence of some substance, reflecting on how long it has been since they last thought of the person they are singing about. They then go on to express how overwhelming it feels to have all those emotions resurface in that moment. In the chorus, the singer confesses that for once, they feel good, but these moments don't last. They are lost and alone, searching for someone to replace the person they call "home."
In the next few lines, the singer admits that they did not intend to let their mind wander to this person, but they were overwhelmed by the part of them that still remained. They then promise to drink until they are sober, so they never have to think of the person again. But in the end, they cannot help but admit that they are not like this, and they would do it all again. They have been holding in their emotions for a long time and cannot make sense of them without the person they are singing about. The song ends with the singer repeating that "Without you, I'm still here."
Overall, the song reflects on the power of memories, how they can suddenly flood back and cause us to feel emotions we thought were long gone. It also acknowledges the difficulty of moving on and replacing someone who was once a significant part of our lives.
