Coheed And Сambria Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You could have been all I wanted
But you weren't honest
Now get in the ground
You choked off the sorriest of favors

But if you really loved me
You would've endured my will
If you're just as I presumed
You're a whore in sheep's clothing

Fucking up all I do
Yeah, and if, oh, here we've stopped
Then never again will you see this in your life
And onto the glory at my right hand

Here laid to rest, is our love ever low
With truth on the shores of confession
You seem to take premise to all of these, so

You stormed off to scar the armada
Like Jesus played leader
I'll drill through your hands
The stone for the curse you have blamed me

With love and devotion, I'll die as you sleep
But if you could just write me out
To never this wonder
Happy will I become?

Be true that this is no option
So, with I condemn you demon pray demon out
And on to the glory at my right hand

Here laid to rest, is our love ever low
With truth on the shores of confession
You seem to take premise to all of these, so

One last kiss for you
One more wish 'til you
Please make up your mind girl, I'll do anything for you

One last kiss for you




One more wish 'til you
Please make up your mind girl, before I hope you die

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Coheed and Cambria's "Welcome Home" tell a story of betrayal and revenge. The singer is addressing someone they were once close to, someone who could have been everything they wanted. However, this person was not honest and ultimately betrayed the singer. The lyrics state that this person choked off the "sorriest of favors," suggesting that they may have taken advantage of the singer's kindness or generosity.


The singer also accuses this person of being a "whore in sheep's clothing," suggesting that they were not who they seemed to be. The lyrics go on to describe the singer's plans for revenge, including drilling through this person's hands (echoing the crucifixion of Jesus) and cursing them for blaming the singer for their mistakes.


Despite this anger and desire for revenge, the singer still seems to have some affection for this person. They express willingness to die for them and ask if they could just "write [the singer] out" of their life so that they could move on. However, by the end of the song, the singer has lost patience and urges this person to "make up [their] mind" before it's too late.


Overall, "Welcome Home" is a powerful song that explores themes of betrayal, revenge, and the complex emotions that can arise in difficult relationships.


Line by Line Meaning

You could have been all I wanted
You had the potential to be everything I wanted


But you weren't honest
But you were not truthful


Now get in the ground
Now it's time for you to die


You choked off the sorriest of favors
You messed up the simplest things


But if you really loved me
But if you truly cared for me


You would've endured my will
You would have tolerated my desires


If you're just as I presumed
If you are exactly how I thought you were


You're a whore in sheep's clothing
You are pretending to be something you are not


Fucking up all I do
Ruining everything I do


Yeah, and if, oh, here we've stopped
And if, oh, this is where we part ways


Then never again will you see this in your life
Then you will never see me again in your life


And onto the glory at my right hand
And onto my greatness at my right side


Here laid to rest, is our love ever low
Our love is dead and buried now


With truth on the shores of confession
With honesty revealed through confession


You seem to take premise to all of these, so
You seem to agree with all of this


You stormed off to scar the armada
You left in a rage to harm others


Like Jesus played leader
Like you were some sort of religious figure leading a group


I'll drill through your hands
I will inflict pain upon you


The stone for the curse you have blamed me
The blame you have attributed to me will come back to haunt you


With love and devotion, I'll die as you sleep
I will love and serve you until the day I die


But if you could just write me out
But if you could just forget about me


To never this wonder
To never experience this feeling of wonder again


Happy will I become?
Will I finally find happiness?


Be true that this is no option
Accept that this is unavoidable


So, with I condemn you demon pray demon out
So, I curse you and hope that you will be exorcised


And on to the glory at my right hand
And onto my greatness at my right side


One last kiss for you
One final kiss for you


One more wish 'til you
One more desire until you


Please make up your mind girl, I'll do anything for you
Please decide what you want, I am willing to do anything for you


Before I hope you die
Before I feel hatred towards you

Fyi, for those who are curious, this audio comes from a kid's show called Bluey. It's made in Australia and is fun to watch for all ages.
