Podunk Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you've been searching for water
If you've been craving the feast
If all the things you ever wanted
Left your eyes without sleep

All you gotta do is let go
All you gotta do is let go

If you've been looking for diamonds
If you've been praying for peace
If all your people gotten further
And left you spirit so weak

All you gotta do is let go

Just let if go, if it's love
It will come back to you
Just let it go, if it's love
It will come back to you
Just let it go if you let it go
It will come back to you

If you've been longing for angels
While you were running from your beast
Has your lover gotten further?
And left you down on your beggin' kness

All you gotta do is let go

Just let if go, if it's love
It will come back to you
Just let it go, if it's love
She will come back to you

Just let it go if you let it go
It will come back to you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Boomerang by Podunk convey a message of moving on and letting go of things that hold us back. The first few lines of the song suggest that the listener has been searching for something, wanting something that they have yet to find. The chorus then offers a solution - to simply let go. The song implies that if we hold onto things too tightly, we might miss out on what we really want. The repetition of the phrase, "If it's love, it will come back to you" implies that sometimes we need to let go of the things we love in order to truly appreciate and have them in our lives.

The song also touches on themes of rejection, abandonment, and feeling left behind. The second verse talks about the desire for peace and diamonds, but all the while feeling weak and alone. The bridge suggests that the listener feels like they are being left behind by their loved ones who are getting further away while they are left on their "beggin' knee". However, the song offers hope, that if they let go and trust in the power of love, they will get what they want in the end.

Overall, Boomerang is an empowering song that encourages listeners to let go of their fears and negative emotions, and trust in the power of love to bring them what they need in life.
