The Bowmans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This feeling inside
Oh it’s not a surprise
I’ve been feeling all these words
Ego gone inside a verse
I don’t understand the curse
I can’t speak without this first
You deserve it the first time
Ya the past just still haunts me
And it feels very real
But I know that you earned it
I know I should just reveal
I just I had answers
You don’t deserve this deal
I’m just thankful
I’m just thankful
I’m just thankful for this
I got this feeling in my body where its bout to be bliss
And for the longest time I never thought I’d really be here
But then you changed my world for better we’re just over a year
But then you took off on that plane and my heart sailed on out too sea
It’s been different now that you are gone not riding here with me
And i’ll count my lucky stars that you’re not even here to see
And I know that we can make I can’t wait until we’ll be, ya
Together again, Together again
Together again, Together again
Together again, Together again
Together again
I can’t be here I feel dead
I must resist the feel dread
I won’t forget what you said
You will be fine my love, end
The lyrics to The Bowmans' song "Far from Home" express a sense of internal conflict and longing. The opening lines, "I’m living a lie, this feeling inside, oh it’s not a surprise," suggest that the singer is hiding something or pretending to be someone they are not. They acknowledge that they have been feeling these emotions for some time, but they struggle to understand why they are cursed with this inability to communicate honestly. The line "ego gone inside a verse" implies that the singer uses their songwriting as a way to express their true feelings, but it comes with a certain level of vulnerability.
The song then delves into a reflection on a past relationship or connection that still haunts the singer. They express gratitude for the experience and acknowledge that the other person deserves their honesty, but there is also a sense of regret and a feeling that they don't deserve the pain they are going through. The lyrics mention a physical separation caused by a plane taking the other person away, and the singer admits that their world feels different without them. They also confess that they feel a sense of relief that the other person is not present to witness their struggle.
Overall, "Far from Home" explores the complexities of internal battles, the longing for connection, and the challenges of expressing genuine emotions. It captures the conflicting emotions of gratitude, regret, and the anticipation of reuniting with someone who has had a significant impact on the singer's life.

But then you changed my world for better we’re just over a year
But then you improved my life, and it's been just over a year
But then you took off on that plane and my heart sailed on out to sea
But then you departed on that aircraft, and my heart felt lost
It’s been different now that you are gone not riding here with me
It's been contrasting now that you're absent, not accompanying me
And i’ll count my lucky stars that you’re not even here to see
And I'll consider myself fortunate that you're not here to witness this
And I know that we can make it, I can’t wait until we’ll be, ya
And I know that we can overcome this, I can't wait until we will be together
Together again, Together again
Reunited, once more
I can’t be here I feel dead
I can't exist in this place, I feel lifeless
I must resist the feel dread
I need to fight against the overwhelming fear
I won’t forget what you said
I won't forget your words
You will be fine my love, end
You will be okay, my love, eventually
