Feels Like Home
Lukas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes it doesn't feel fair
You can look back and see all of our good parts
You know you took that from me
Yeah, I think of you and all that comes to
My mind is how you treated me so ugly
Now I don't wanna relive I just wanna forget
And by now I'm doing okay I'm even having good days
Where my eyes don't always look sad And I get out of bed and I wonder

Is this what getting over you feels like?
Going out with friends on weeknights
And silently drinking my wine when they talk about weddings
But it doesn't really hurt anymore, it just stings a little bit
Cause it feels like in another life I had someone to call my home
And it was beautiful until it was misery
Now I don't know if I'm missing you
Or if I'm just missing me

And I curse your name for being the reason why I get asked out for dinner by this really good guy
But I can't go, I say "it's complicated"
And I can tell he curses your name just the same
And sometimes this bed feels empty and cold But I got so used to sleeping on my own
Not that you would know
I bet she's keeping my side of the bed warm

Is this what getting over you feels like?
Crying lonely tears at midnights
And dying just a little bit inside
Thinking about who you're lying next to
And don't you know it feels like?
I'm attending funerals everyday
Thinking about the man you used to be
And it's a mystery to me how to live with this grief
You know nobody ever taught me

And so it keeps me up at night (I curse your name for being the reason why)




When I walk the streets it walks right by my side (it's complicated)
And that's what getting over you feels like

Sometimes it doesn't feel fair
Life can be unjust and difficult at times


You can look back and see all of our good parts
Reflecting on the positive aspects of our past relationship


You know you took that from me
Acknowledging the hurt caused by your actions


Yeah, I think of you and all that comes to
Thoughts of you bring back memories of how I was mistreated


My mind is how you treated me so ugly
Remembering the pain of being treated poorly by you


Now I don't wanna relive I just wanna forget
Trying to move on and leave the past behind


And by now I'm doing okay I'm even having good days
Slowly recovering and experiencing moments of happiness


Where my eyes don't always look sad And I get out of bed and I wonder
Feeling stronger and curious about what the future holds


Is this what getting over you feels like?
Questioning the process of moving on from you


Going out with friends on weeknights
Trying to socialize and enjoy time with loved ones


And silently drinking my wine when they talk about weddings
Pretending to be fine while coping with thoughts of commitment


But it doesn't really hurt anymore, it just stings a little bit
Feeling a lingering pain from our past relationship


Cause it feels like in another life I had someone to call my home
Longing for a sense of belonging and comfort


And it was beautiful until it was misery
Recalling the beauty of our relationship that turned to pain


Now I don't know if I'm missing you
Uncertain if I miss you or the version of myself with you


Or if I'm just missing me
Feeling lost and longing for my own identity


And I curse your name for being the reason why I get asked out for dinner by this really good guy
Blaming you for the complications in my new relationships


But I can't go, I say 'it's complicated'
Struggling to move forward due to emotional baggage


And I can tell he curses your name just the same
Recognizing the impact of our past on others


And sometimes this bed feels empty and cold But I got so used to sleeping on my own
Feeling lonely in bed, but also finding independence


Not that you would know
Realizing you are not aware of my struggles


I bet she's keeping my side of the bed warm
Imagining someone new in your place


Is this what getting over you feels like?
Continuing to question the process of moving on from you


Crying lonely tears at midnights
Expressing sadness and grief in solitude


And dying just a little bit inside
Feeling emotional pain and loss


Thinking about who you're lying next to
Wondering about your new partner


And don't you know it feels like?
Describing the overwhelming emotions of heartbreak


I'm attending funerals everyday
Experiencing constant grief and mourning


Thinking about the man you used to be
Reflecting on the changes in your character


And it's a mystery to me how to live with this grief
Struggling to cope with the pain of our breakup


You know nobody ever taught me
Realizing the lack of guidance in dealing with heartache


And so it keeps me up at night (I curse your name for being the reason why)
Feeling restless and upset due to our past


When I walk the streets it walks right by my side (it's complicated)
Sensing your presence in everyday life, complicating my healing


And that's what getting over you feels like
Summarizing the ongoing struggle of moving on from you
