Indelible
Homebound Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Took one look inside your eyes,
Felt a weight lift from my mind,
You gave me strength,
It all made sense when I'm with you, when I'm with you.

I don't know if I can lose myself again with you,
I'll keep on falling for you.
Wish I could go back before,
Before I knew who you were,
Despite the pain, I'll do it all again to be with you, to be near you.

If I'm the one you wanted,
Then you had to let me know,
Let's finish what we started,
Or it's time to let me go.

I don't know if I can lose myself again with you,
I'll keep on falling for you.
But it's been a while since I saw you and smiled,
A failed pick-me-up,
I think I've had enough of missing you,
But I keep falling for you.

Oh I should've known,
That's how these stories go.
Nothing more to me than misery,
I should've known.

I don't know if I can lose myself again with you,
I'll keep on falling for you.
But it's been a while since I saw you and smiled,
A failed pick-me-up,




I've really had enough of missing you,
But I keep falling for you.

Overall Meaning

The song "Indelible" by Homebound is a contemplative look at a past relationship that left a deep mark on the singer. The song starts with the line "Took one look inside your eyes, felt a weight lift from my mind." This suggests that the singer found solace or escape in the other person's eyes. The next line is "You gave me strength, it all made sense when I'm with you, when I'm with you." The singer found strength in the other person's presence, and everything made more sense.


However, there is a sense of hesitation in the next few lines. The singer says "I don't know if I can lose myself again with you, I'll keep on falling for you." This suggests that the singer is hesitant to jump back into the relationship, despite the strong feelings they have. They then say "Wish I could go back before, before I knew who you were." This indicates that the relationship ended poorly, and the singer wishes they could go back to a time before they knew the other person, to avoid the pain.


The chorus is repetitive, with the singer saying that they're falling for the person, but also acknowledging that it's been a while since they have seen them smile. There is a sense of nostalgia for the past relationship, but also an acknowledgment that it may not be healthy to keep longing for someone who is not present in their life anymore. The song ends with the line "I've really had enough of missing you, but I keep falling for you," which encapsulates the conflict between wanting to move on from the past but constantly being drawn back to it.


Line by Line Meaning

Took one look inside your eyes,
As I glimpsed into your soul through those eyes of yours,


Felt a weight lift from my mind,
All the worries and anxieties that filled my thoughts disappeared on sight,


You gave me strength,
Your presence filled me with courage and confidence,


It all made sense when I'm with you, when I'm with you.
The world seemed clearer and more understandable whenever I'm around you.


I don't know if I can lose myself again with you,
There's uncertainty in my heart that I may fall under your spell once more,


I'll keep on falling for you.
But despite that, I know I won't be able to resist you.


Wish I could go back before,
Sometimes, I ponder on the idea of reversing time and going to the past,


Before I knew who you were,
So that I could have avoided meeting you and subsequently knowing who you are,


Despite the pain, I'll do it all again to be with you, to be near you.
Even if it means going through the pain and hardships once more, I'll do whatever it takes just to be close to you.


If I'm the one you wanted,
If I am the person you're seeking and longing for,


Then you had to let me know,
You have to make it clear to me and confess your feelings,


Let's finish what we started,
Let's continue our unfinished journey together,


Or it's time to let me go.
Otherwise, it's best for me to move on and leave you behind.


But it's been a while since I saw you and smiled,
It's been long since I last saw you and felt happy and content,


A failed pick-me-up,
The attempts to lift my spirits by thinking of you were futile and ineffective,


I've really had enough of missing you,
I am strongly weary and tired of longing for you,


But I keep falling for you.
Yet despite all those negative feelings, I can't help but be drawn and attracted to you.


Oh I should've known,
I ought to have been aware and cautious of the consequences,


That's how these stories go.
This is the way tales like these typically play out,


Nothing more to me than misery,
All that remains for me is just pain and distress,


I should've known.
I should have foreseen the outcome and refrained from my actions.

I feel this song on every level. This is one of those songs that just hit you in the soul. You listen to it and you feel the emotion and just hold it back. It makes you sit and think. It makes you go crazy cause you relate to it on a whole different level. It finds you when you need it most. It finds you when you’re having trouble finding the words to say to someone. This is a masterpiece. This song is everything I need to say to someone but don’t know how to.
