Homesick
Diskq Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But home's so far away
I want to go back home
But home's a million
Places, I just gotta face it
Everywhere i'm restless
Running over there
Gina you're so reckless
Maybe you should break this
Cycle of destruction but
I don't fucking care
I don't fucking care
Cuz I feel it in the air
Feel it in my soul
And it's telling me it's there
It's there it's there in the world
You just gotta be the one to hope
Hold me right there
Ohhh it's unfair
Hold me right there
Ohhh it's unfair
I want to go back home
But home's so far away
I want to go back home
But home's a million-
Places, I just gotta face it
Everywhere i'm restless
Running over there
And i'm running till i'm breathless
Gina you're so reckless
Maybe you should break this
Cycle of destruction but
I don't fucking care
I don't fucking care
Cuz I feel it in the air
Feel it in my soul
And it's telling me it's there
It's there it's there in the world
You just gotta be the one to hope
Hold me right there
Ohhh it's unfair
Hold me right there
Ohhh it's unfair
The lyrics of Diskq's song "Homesick" convey a strong desire to return home, but also acknowledge the distance and challenges involved. The repetition of the first two lines, "I want to go back home, but home's so far away," emphasizes the longing for familiarity and a sense of belonging. This feeling is intensified with the line "But home's a million places," which suggests that home is not a physical location, but rather a feeling or state of mind.
The following lines, "Everywhere I'm restless, running over there, and I'm running till I'm breathless," express a restlessness and constant pursuit of something beyond what is currently known or experienced. The mention of someone named Gina being reckless suggests that there may be a negative pattern or influence in the singer's life that they are aware of but struggle to break free from. This cycle of destruction is mentioned, yet the singer claims not to care, which implies a resignation or acceptance of their circumstances.
The repetition of "I don't fucking care" further emphasizes the singer's detachment from their current situation or surroundings. Instead, they feel something intangible in the air and in their soul that tells them there is more to life than what they are currently experiencing. The phrase "It's there in the world, you just gotta be the one to hope" suggests that the singer believes there is hope to be found, but it requires a proactive mindset and belief in better possibilities.
The lines "Hold me right there, ohhh it's unfair" express a sense of frustration or helplessness, as if the singer is being held back from finding their way home or achieving their desired state of being. The repetition of this phrase adds emphasis to their feelings of being stuck or trapped. Overall, the lyrics of "Homesick" portray a deep longing for home, a recognition of the challenges faced, and a glimmer of hope for a better future.
