I Belong
Pete Yorn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now I realize there's a whole world outside
Goodbye's too hard for me to say, so
I say "So long"
This is where I belong
Is this where I choose to stay on
This is where I belong
My homeI belong
Home
I belong now
The lyrics to Pete Yorn's song "I Belong" speak to the idea of finding one's place in the world. The opening lines describe the singer's previous belief that a certain part of their life was the only important aspect, but they have come to understand that there is a vast world beyond that singular focus. The line "Goodbye's too hard for me to say, so I say 'So long'" conveys a reluctance to part with something or someone, but an acknowledgment that moving forward is necessary. The central refrain, "This is where I belong," represents a sense of belonging and comfort in a particular place or situation.
Overall, the song is about the journey of discovering oneself and finding a sense of home and belonging. It speaks to the importance of exploring and experiencing all that life has to offer, while acknowledging the difficulty of letting go of the familiar.
Line by Line Meaning
Used to think it was the only part of my life
In the past, I believed this one aspect of my life was all that mattered
Now I realize there's a whole world outside
Currently, I understand that there is a vast world outside of my former belief
Goodbye's too hard for me to say, so
Saying goodbye is too difficult for me to vocalize, thus
I say "So long"
I opt to use the phrase 'so long' instead
This is where I belong
I have found my place in the world
Is this where I choose to stay on
Would I like to remain here, at my rightful place?
This is where I belong
Once again, I reiterate that this place is where I earned my spot
My home
This environment feels like my habitual residence
I belong
I am part of the community here
Home
This place conceives the comfort and coziness of a home
I belong now
Currently, I have acquired a sense of belonging here
