Carry Me Home
Jake Reese Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There was a time
You and I get faded together
On the floor, so high
And I stayed there forever

You took the high road, I took the bottle
A little taste of freedom
But I get the feeling that I'll be needing
Somebody I can lean on

When I'm drunk and out on my own
Would you carry me home, carry me home, home?
When I'm down at the end of my rope
Would you carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home?

Home, home, home
When I'm down at the end of my rope
Would you carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home?

There was a time
You and I get faded together
That was then, but I know
We're still birds of a feather

You took the high road, I took the bottle
I'm never gonna slow down
But the lights are coming on
They're playing the final song
And I just need to know now

When I'm drunk and out on my own
Would you carry me home, carry me home, home?
When I'm down at the end of my rope
Would you carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home?

Home, home, home
When I'm down at the end, oh I know
You'll carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home

You carry me home
Home, home, home




When I'm down at the end, oh I know
You'll carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Carry Me Home" by Jake Reese talk about the complicated relationship between two people who get high together. The song begins with a nostalgic memory of the two persons getting "faded" on the floor and feeling high. Although the singer is grateful for the company, they acknowledge that they took separate paths with one taking the "high road" and the other the "bottle." Even though they are not on the same path, the singer feels the need for someone to "lean on" when they are drunk and alone.


As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges that they are aware of their tendency to drink excessively and use as a means of enduring life. However, they are hopeful that someone, possibly the person that they used to get high with, would carry them home when they are down and at the end of their rope.


The repeated use of the word "home" in the lyrics indicates a longing to find a place of safety and belonging, a place where the singer can let their guard down and be vulnerable. Overall, the song is an emotional and raw confession of a person who is struggling with addiction, the hope for salvation or redemption, and the need for a loved one's support and care.


Line by Line Meaning

There was a time
There was a point in the past


You and I get faded together
We used to get drunk together


On the floor, so high
We would get so drunk that we couldn't stand


And I stayed there forever
I loved being that drunk


You took the high road, I took the bottle
You made a better life choice while I chose alcohol


A little taste of freedom
Drinking gives me a sense of freedom


But I get the feeling that I'll be needing
I feel like I need someone to support me


Somebody I can lean on
Someone who I can rely on to help me when I'm drunk


When I'm drunk and out on my own
When I'm drunk and alone


Would you carry me home, carry me home, home?
Can you help me get home?


When I'm down at the end of my rope
When I'm in a difficult situation


Home, home, home
Referring to the idea of a safe place


You'll carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home
You'll help me get to a safe place


That was then, but I know
That was in the past, but I understand


We're still birds of a feather
We still have similarities


I'm never gonna slow down
I'll never stop drinking


But the lights are coming on
The party is coming to an end


They're playing the final song
The night is almost over


And I just need to know now
I need to confirm something


You carry me home
You help me get home


When I'm down at the end, oh I know
When I'm in a difficult situation, I'm aware

Lyrics :

There was a time
You and I get faded together
On the floor, so high
And I stayed there forever

You took the high road, I took the bottle
The little taste of freedom
But I get the feeling that I'll be needing
Somebody I can lean on

When I'm drunk and out on my own
You carry me home, carry me home, home
When I'm down at the end of my rope
You carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home

Home, home, home
When I'm down at the end of my rope
You carry me home
Carry me home, home, home, home

There was a time
You and I get faded together
That was then, but I know
We're still birds of a feather

You took the high road, I took the bottle
I'm never gonna slow down
But the lights are coming on, playing the final song
And I just need to know now

When I'm drunk and out on my own
You carry me home, carry me home, home
When I'm down at the end of my rope
You carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home

Home, home, home
When I'm down at the end, oh I know
You carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home

You carry me home
Home, home, home
When I'm down at the end, oh I know
You carry me home, carry me home, home, home, home
