Return
Casey Fallen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's all I had to give you
That blue door you left open
I walked out with your empty suitcase
No pictures glued to the pages
Your face is so empty
It's all relative
It's all I had to give you
You took nothing and drove off that
Road in Brussels, where no one walked
It looked like grey to me, you said black.
It was all I wanted for you
I took it back
It's all relative
It's all I had to give you
(I had to give to you)
(It's all I had to give to you)
(It's all I had to give, to give,
To give, to give to you, it's all, It's all)
The lyrics of "Return" by Casey Fallen are open to interpretation, but at their core, they seem to express a sense of longing, loss, and regret. The singer is addressing someone they once knew, possibly a former lover, who has left them feeling empty and alone. The phrase "it's all relative" seems to indicate a sense of perspective and how one's experience of reality is shaped by their own personal circumstances.
The imagery of the blue door left open and the empty suitcase suggest a departure or a separation, and the absence of pictures glued to the pages indicates a lack of memories or shared experiences. The contrasting emotions of the two characters are also evident. The singer's heart is raging with feeling, while the other person's face is empty, suggesting a cold detachment.
The line "You took nothing and drove off that road in Brussels" creates a vivid image of someone leaving everything behind to pursue their own path, possibly at the expense of a relationship. The singer seems to have given this person everything they had to offer, but it wasn't enough to make them stay.
Overall, "Return" is a melancholic song that explores the complexities of human relationships and the pain of losing someone you cared about deeply.
