Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Na, na, na (Re-think, we might, we sing, all night)
We're far from home and I just seen the gas light
We're too far gone and we're running outta daylight
I ride all day
She like no way
You tell me what
I want to say
Too much, I say
You make me want
To chill out all day
You know you ain't the only one that I been with
But you know you were the only one who would listen
We ain't the same but summer was so consistent
You know that I'm the only one you can kick with (Yeah)
So pour the whiskey bottle
Mix up a coke and be my key until we see tomorrow
Let's get a new tattoo to remember the things we got too
Let's say a toast to all our other friends we never got to (Yeah)
We're far from home and I just seen the gas light
We're too far gone and we're running outta daylight
We're far from home and I just seen the gas light
We're too far gone and we're running outta daylight
She said you drink
Too much, irate
You don't know me
Get out my bed
We fight, make up
Re-write, re-fuck
We tight, we hug
But she mad, she red
When words turn into punches and kicks
You know that we had too much of this shit
I need a breather, I'm done with this bitch
And she over my fits when it comes to this shit
Gaslight, last flight, we hug, re-write
Re-think, we might, we sing, all night
Gaslight, last flight, we hug, re-write (Na, na, na)
Re-think, we might, we sing, all night (Na, na, na)
We're far from home and I just seen the gas light (Gas light)
We're too far gone and we're running outta daylight (Re-think)
We're far from home and I just seen the gas light (Gas light)
We're too far gone and we're running outta daylight (Re-think)
Gaslight, last flight, we hug, re-write (Na, na, na)
Re-think, we might, we sing, all night (Na, na, na)
Gaslight, last flight, we hug, re-write (Na, na, na)
Re-think, we might, we sing, all night (Na, na, na)
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
The lyrics of Ryan A. Conklin's song "Far From Home" depict a tumultuous and emotionally charged relationship. The repeated mention of the gas light symbolizes a sense of being lost and disconnected. The singer feels as though they are far away from their home and the familiarity it provides.

The lines "You say I work too much, I say you make me want to chill out all day" highlight the conflicting desires and priorities in their lives. There is a sense of longing for connection and understanding, as the singer mentions that their partner was the only one who would listen.
The chorus emphasizes the distance between them, both physically and emotionally. They are depicted as being "too far gone" and running out of time, possibly indicating that the relationship is reaching its breaking point.

I deployed a few years back and still ask myself that to this day. For me it was to make sure my buddies and I got home safe and that's it.
