Son Mieux Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Finally I feel the air I breathe
And I considered I've
Become a lie to me
Well in your lights I'll always be
Oh I don't know where I am
But it feels like home
When it don't feel like home
Well now I love myself again
And it feels like home
Oh I don't know where I am
But it feels like home
Like home
It feels like home
Feels like home
It's time to be a man and leave
I'll leave your safe grounds
To find some distance
I am a light so
Light my high
Well I'll become a higher me
Oh I don't know where I am
But it feels like home
And I pull myself away
When it don't feel like home
Well now I love myself again
And it feels like home
Oh I don't know where I am
But it feels like home
Like home
But, it feels like home
But it feels like home
Well now I love myself again
And it feels like home
Oh I don't know where I am
But it feels like home
The song "Feels" by Dutch indie-pop band Son Mieux centers around the theme of self-discovery and self-love. The lyrics depict a person who decides to leave their comfort zone to find themselves, even if it means leaving behind the people and places they love. The first two lines suggest that they are ready to move on and breathe fresh air after feeling stuck in their old life. However, the next line, "And I considered I've become a lie to me," shows that they have become someone they don't recognize or respect.
The singer of the song finds solace in the thought that they will always be cherished in the eyes of the person they are leaving behind: "Well, in your lights I'll always be." They admit they don't know where they're going, but it feels like home, indicating that they are following their instincts and their heart. Even if it doesn't make logical sense, they feel a sense of belonging and contentment in their decision.
The chorus repeats "it feels like home" as a mantra, where the singer reflects on their newfound self-love and acceptance. They feel more comfortable in their own skin and are willing to let go of whatever does not serve them. The line "I am a light so light my high" suggests that they are ready to rise above their doubts and fear and become their best self. The song ends repeating the line "Oh I don't know where I am, but it feels like home," emphasizing the sense of fluidity and the idea that home is where the heart lies.
