Hometown
NEFFEX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Waves are gone, he has his days
As a lot oh his mind too bad
He's only happy in inside
Has his canons which he files
The only boy I know can't cry.
I can see the ground I can't see you
Leave the lights on when I'll go
So I can watch you down below.
How this loss been his loss
They all bridges he had to cross
We have bridges that we burn
And had so much we had to learn.
He has his canons which he files
The only boy I know can't cry
I can see the ground I can't see you
And see our hometown I can't see you
Leave the lights on when I'll go
So I can watch you down below.
The only boy I know can't cry
I can see the ground I can't see you
And see our hometown I can't see you
Leave the lights on when I'll go
So I can watch you down below.
The lyrics of NEFFEX's song "Hometown" delve into the feelings of disconnection and alienation from one's past and roots. The opening lines, "He's got his walls and his ways, Waves are gone, he has his days" hint at a sense of isolation from the outside world, as if the person described has retreated into their own world. The next line, "As a lot of his mind too bad, He's only happy in inside" implies that the person is troubled or haunted by negative thoughts that they keep tucked away. The line "Has his canons which he files" could be interpreted as the person having a set of defenses or coping mechanisms that they have honed over time to prevent themselves from getting hurt. The final line, "The only boy I know can't cry" underscores the theme of emotional disconnect.
The chorus "I can see the ground I can't see you, And see our hometown I can't see you, Leave the lights on when I'll go, So I can watch you down below" continues the theme of separation and detachment. It suggests that the person singing the song is leaving their hometown or roots behind and is trying to hold on to some semblance of connection by watching the lights of the city from a distance. The line "They all bridges he had to cross, We have bridges that we burn" could be interpreted as a commentary on the different ways people navigate the challenges of change and growth. The final line "And had so much we had to learn" suggests a reflective tone, as if the person narrating the song is coming to terms with the difficulties of the past and the lessons learned.
