Homecoming
Two Til Twelve Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Falling asleep but he's got no where to be
Eyes open wide but his face is a disguise
He's coming home; home
A guide to the sun he needs a hand from everyone
He talks in his sleep to people he's yet to meet
Eyes open wide but the sunlight blocks his eyes
Just get out of his way
He can't control the things he says no
Just get out of his way
Well he's coming home anyway
Just get out of his way
He can't control the things he says no
Just get out of his way
Well he's coming home anyway
Just get out of his way
He can't control the things he says no
Just get out of his way
Well he's coming home anyway
Just get out of his way
He can't control the things he says no
Just get out of his way
Well he's coming home anyway
The lyrics to Two Til Twelve's song "Homecoming" depict a character who is caught in a state of confusion and disconnection from reality. The line "Caught in the rain on a sunny yesterday" suggests a contrast between external appearances and internal emotions. Despite the pleasant weather, the singer feels lost and without direction. The line "Falling asleep but he's got nowhere to be" further emphasizes this sense of aimlessness and lack of purpose.
The lyrics also highlight the singer's struggle with communication and social interaction. He "talks in his sleep to people he's yet to meet," indicating a longing for connection and a difficulty in establishing meaningful relationships. The line "Eyes open wide but the sunlight blocks his eyes" suggests that he is blinded by the overwhelming realities of the world, making it difficult for him to truly see and understand.
Throughout the song, there is a recurring theme of coming home, which could have multiple interpretations. It could be interpreted as a desire to find a place of belonging and acceptance, or it could symbolize a search for inner peace and self-discovery. Regardless of the exact meaning, it is clear that the singer is on a journey of self-reflection and trying to find his way back to a place of comfort and understanding.
