Can't Find My Way Home
Mig Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come down of your throne and leave leave your body alone
Somebody must change
You are the reason I've been waiting so long
Somebody holds the key

Well, I'm weird, I just ain't got the time
And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home
And I can't find my way home

Come down on your own and leave your body alone
Somebody must change
You want the reason I've been waiting all these years
Somebody holds the key

Well, I'm weird, I just ain't got the time
And I am wasted and I can't find my way home
And I can't find my way home and I can't find my way home

Well, I'm weird and I just ain't got the time
And I am wasted and I can't find my way home




And I can't find my way home and I can't find my way home
And I can't find my way home and I can't find my way home

Overall Meaning

The first two lines of the song "Come down off your throne and leave your body alone / Somebody must change" suggest that the person being addressed is in a position of power, but is disconnected from themselves and those around them. The line "Somebody must change" implies that they need to make a change in their behavior or mindset in order to connect with others. The next two lines "You are the reason I've been waiting so long / Somebody holds the key" suggest that the person being addressed is significant to the singer, and that they have been waiting for something to change in order to move forward. The line "Somebody holds the key" implies that the person being addressed has the power to make the change the singer is waiting for.


The chorus of the song repeats the lines "Well, I'm weird, I just ain't got the time / And I am wasted and I can't find my way home / And I can't find my way home". The use of the word "weird" suggests that the singer feels disconnected from others, or perhaps that others perceive them as being strange or unusual. The line "I just ain't got the time" suggests that the singer is busy or preoccupied with something else, and the line "I am wasted" could mean they are physically or emotionally exhausted, or possibly under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The repeated line "And I can't find my way home" suggests that the singer is lost or unable to return to a place of comfort or belonging.


Overall, the lyrics suggest a feeling of disconnection and longing for connection, as well as a sense of being lost or directionless. The repeated use of the phrase "somebody must change" suggests that the singer is waiting for others to make a change, rather than taking control of their own situation.
