Santa Theresa
The Matchup Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're going back to the place that we call home
Faces we haven't seen for so long
Now we're back in town, so spread the word around
I know where we belong, this is our hometown
Been gone way too long.
I know that's where we belong
Doing the things we use to do before
Feeling like we're rotten to the core
But it's alright, the boys are back in town
I know where we belong, this is our hometown
Been gone way too long.
I know that's where we belong
The good old memories have been revived
Throughout all these years things have changed a lot
Santa theresa, rock city!
It's the only place we can call our own
The Matchup's "Santa Theresa" is a song about returning home after a long time away. It starts with the singer holding a piece of paper and a new song, ready to go back to where they belong. They're excited to see faces they haven't seen for a long time, and once they're back, it's like they never left. They're hanging out at the same old joint, doing the same things they used to do, and feeling a bit decadent but happy about it.
However, they're also aware that things have changed. They're nostalgic for the good old memories they have, but they know that time has moved on. Nonetheless, they proclaim that Santa Theresa is their hometown and rock city, the only place they can call their own. The song is a celebration of hometown pride and the comfort of returning to familiar places and faces.
The lyrics can be interpreted as being about the comfort of familiarity and the importance of home. It's important to have a place where you belong, and where you can return to after being away for a long time. The song also touches on the bittersweet feeling that comes with returning home after so much time has passed.
