Hometown Lyrics

A shadow tilts its head at me
Spirits in the dark are waiting
I will let the wind go quietly
I will let the wind go quietly

Be the one, be the one
To take my soul and make it undone
Be the one, be the one
To take me home and show me the sun
I know, I know
You can bring the fire, I can bring the bones
I know, I know
You make the fire, and my bones will make it grow

Where we're from, there's no sun
Our hometown's in the dark
Where we're from, we're no one
Our hometown's in the dark
Our hometown's in the dark

A shadow tilts its head at me
Spirits in the dark are waiting
I will let the wind go quietly
I will let the wind go quietly

Put away, put away
All the gods your father served today
Put away, put away
Your traditions, believe me when I say
We don't know, we don't know
How to put back the power in our soul
We don't know, we don't know
Where to find what once was in our bones

Where we're from, there's no sun
Our hometown's in the dark
Where we're from, we're no one
Our hometown's in the dark
Our hometown's in the dark

A shadow tilts its head at me
Spirits in the dark are waiting
I will let the wind go quietly
I will let the wind go quietly

Where we're from, there's no sun
Our hometown's in the dark
Where we're from, we're no one
Our hometown's in the dark

What is the Meaning of Hometown?

In the shadowy echoes of "Hometown," twenty one pilots delve into the profound disconnection from one's roots and the yearning for a lost sense of belonging. The lyrics paint a picture of a place shrouded in darkness, where identity and tradition are obscured by an overwhelming absence of light—both literal and metaphorical. This haunting ballad wrestles with the notion of spiritual and cultural desolation, exploring how we navigate the void left when our foundational connections to home are severed or transformed beyond recognition. It's a poignant reflection on seeking illumination and redemption in places that have forgotten the sun, urging listeners to find their own light amidst the shadows. #Rediscovery #SpiritualJourney
