Come Back
Rose and Me Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Forget it all and let it go
Until you woke up beside me
And said, “Come back to me
You're slipping a—
Away from my life
Away from my soul
Away from being there for your little girl
Come back to this world
Don’t you make us worry
Worry!”
All my friends say that I have a problem
That I could never quit on my own
They say it brings out the worst in me
But all my friends say
They don't wanna go
They don't wanna go home
All my friends say
They don’t wanna go
They don’t wanna go home
They're running away
Away from their lives
Away from their homes
Away from all the bullshit that won’t let go
“Hey, you wanna make this right?
Come back to this world
Don’t you make us worry
Worry!”
Or was I the one to say it?
That I don't want to go home
Why did you ask me to come back?
Wasn't I always here?
Huh?
Where did I go?
Where did I go?
Where did I go?
The song "Come Back" by Rose and Me is a powerful and emotional plea to someone who is struggling with addiction or depression to come back to the world and the people who care about them. The song speaks to the feelings of being lost and separating oneself from the ones that love and support them, but also acknowledges the difficulty of quitting on one's own. The song starts with the idea of wanting to forget everything and move on, but the singer is woken up by someone they care about who pleads with them to come back to reality and not let go of the important things in their life.
The lyrics express the sense of isolation and difficulty of coming back from addiction or depression, amplified by the chorus repeating that the singer's friends are also struggling and afraid to go home. The chorus also emphasizes the importance of not worrying the ones who care about them, which is a strong motivator to make amends and start the path towards recovery. The closing lines of the song leave open-ended questions about how and why the singer truly lost themselves, underscoring the struggles and pain of addiction and mental illness.
Overall, the song speaks to a difficult topic with honesty and empathy, delivering a message of hope and support for those who may feel alone and disconnected.
