Far From Home
Sam Tinnesz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Black bird in the sky
Sending a signal that I'm here
Some sign of life
I'm sending a message
Of feathers and bone
Just let me know I'm not forgotten out here alone
The night is long
I feel like I might fade into the dawn
Fade until I'm gone
Oh, I'm so far from home
I'm so far from home
So far from home
Oh, not where I belong
Not where I belong
Oh, I'm so far from home
I'm so far from home
So far from home
I'm sending a raven
With blood on its wings
Hoping it reaches you in time
And you know what it means
'Cause out here in the darkness
And out of the light
If you get to me too late
Just know that I tried
Oh, I'm so far from home
So far from home
Oh, not where I belong
Not where I belong
Not where I belong
Oh, I'm so far from home
So far from home
So far
The air is cold
The night is long
I feel like I might fade into the dawn
Fade until I'm gone
Oh, I'm so far from home
So far from home
Oh, not where I belong
Not where I belong
Oh, I'm so far from home
So far from home
Oh, not where I belong
Not where I belong
So far from home
Not where I belong
I'm so far from home
The lyrics of Sam Tinnesz's song "Far From Home" reveal the vulnerabilities of someone who is feeling isolated and lonely. The singer of the song is sending a raven with a message, symbolizing his hope for communication and connection with someone he left behind. His longing for a sign of life is underlined with the phrase "just let me know I'm not forgotten out here alone." The verse "with blood on its wings" emphasizes how much effort he is putting in to communicate, while the line "if you get to me too late just know that I tried" shows that the singer is not hopeful about the outcome of his attempt to reach out.
The chorus repeats the phrase "I'm so far from home," which can be interpreted either literally or figuratively. The singer might be physically far from his hometown, but he could also feel emotionally detached from his present surroundings. The desire to belong and be with someone who understands him is echoed in the line "not where I belong." The song's melancholic mood is intensified by the use of metaphors such as "the air is cold, the night is long," and the fears of disappearing into the dawn.
Overall, the song portrays the struggle of being disconnected from the familiar and the yearning for companionship.

I'm sending the raven
I'm trying to make contact
Black bird in the sky
I'm using a bird to send my message
Sending a signal that I'm here
I'm letting someone know that I'm still alive
Some sign of life
I need someone to acknowledge my existence
I'm sending a message
I'm communicating something important
Of feathers and bone
I'm using a bird as a messenger
Just let me know I'm not forgotten out here alone
I need reassurance that I'm still remembered
The air is cold
The environment is harsh
The night is long
The situation feels endless
I feel like I might fade into the dawn
I'm losing hope and may not make it through the night
Fade until I'm gone
I fear disappearing and being forgotten
Oh, I'm so far from home
I'm geographically distant from where I belong
Not where I belong
I feel out of place here
I'm sending a raven
I'm trying to get through to someone
With blood on its wings
The bird may have encountered danger in its journey
Hoping it reaches you in time
I need my message to be received quickly
And you know what it means
I need someone to understand the importance of my message
If you get to me too late
There's a real possibility that I won't make it
Just know that I tried
I did everything in my power to reach out
So far from home
I'm isolated and alone
Not where I belong
I'm in an unfamiliar and uncomfortable place
I'm so far from home
I'm physically and emotionally far from where I feel safe

Oh man, I really feel you. I dont know if you care, but when I came back from a long travel, I had a strange feeling. When I listened to that song, sitting in a parc near my home, I realized it like if it was obvious:
I never really came back. Or worst, that place don't exist anymore. The place I wanted to come back to...was no more.
Don't get me wrong here, my folks were all there safe and alive but the...me..who ran away and came back later..wasn't the same person. I don't know if that makes any sense, but yeah, that's what that song made me feel.
Like even today: I never came home.
But yeah, if you're still reading this, I just wanna let you know that I have similar problem such as depression and so on, but when the days are bright, I keep pushing to find a place or a person that I could eventually call "Home". A person that I could come back to and have that same feeling again.
So, peace out. I know things will get better for all of us, they always do. :)
Take care.

Im sending a raven
Black bird in the sky
Sending a signal that Im here
Some sign of life
Im sending a message
Of feathers and bone
Just let me know Im not forgotten
Out here alone
The air is cold
The night is long
I feel like I might fade into the dawn
Fade until Im gone
Im so far from home, so far from home
Now where I belong, now where I belong
Im so far from home, so far from home
Im sending a raven
With blood on its wings
Hoping it reaches you in time
And you know what it means
Cause out here in the darkness
And out of the light
If you get to me too late
Just know that I tried
Im so far from home, so far from home
Now where I belong, now where I belong
Im so far from home, so far from home
So far
The air is cold
The night is long
I feel like I might fade into the dawn
Fade until Im gone
