Home Sweet Hole Lyrics

Cross my heart I don't want to die
But heaven knows it seems like I try
Lost in a labyrinth for weeks on end
I live and I learn from my mistakes
Then forget them again

Got a feeling in my stomach and it just won't quit
As subtle as a shotgun and as heavy as a brick
'Cause I'm staring at the devil and the truth of it is
He's a lot more familiar than I care to admit

If only I could focus
Maybe if I could see
If I didn't know any better
I would say he looks just like me

The roof is crashing down
The walls are caving in
We've discovered all your stories
Are just works of fiction
The roof is crashing down
The truth is spilling out

(Oh, shit) I've done it again
I'm way too far in over my head
(Oh) I've crossed the line
(No) So many times
I don't even know what it stands for
(Oh, shit) I've done it again
I'm way too far in over my head
(Oh) I've crossed the line
(No) So many times
I don't even know what it stands for

Home sweet hole
Just be careful what you wish for
Home sweet hole
Just be careful what you say
Home sweet hole
Just be careful what you wish for
Home sweet hole
Just be careful what you say

Got a feeling in my stomach that just won't quit
As subtle as a shotgun, as heavy as a brick
Bite your tongue, just bite your tongue
You've already said quite enough

Another roof is crashing down
The walls are caving in
We discover all your stories are just works of fiction
The roof is crashing down
The truth is spilling out

(Oh, shit) I've done it again
I'm way too far in over my head
(Oh) I've crossed the line
(No) So many times
I don't even know what it stands for
(Oh, shit) I've done it again
I'm way too far in over my head
(Oh) I've crossed the line
(No) So many times
I don't even know what it stands for

You wear your lies like a noose around your neck
So kick the chair and let's be done with it
You wear your lies like a noose around your neck
So kick the chair, so kick the chair

You wear your lies like a noose around your neck
So kick the chair and let's be done with it
You wear your lies like a noose around your neck
So kick the chair, so kick the chair

Home sweet hole
Just be careful what you wish for
Home sweet hole
Just be careful what you say
Home sweet hole
Just be careful what you wish for
Home sweet hole
Just be careful what you say

What is the Meaning of Home Sweet Hole?

Exploring themes of self-deception and existential struggle, the lyrics delve into the complexities of personal accountability and the cyclical nature of one's mistakes. The repeated reference to "the devil" as a familiar figure serves as a metaphor for confronting one's own darker impulses. The imagery of crashing roofs and caving walls illustrates the inevitable collapse of illusions and the exposure of harsh truths. The refrain "Home sweet hole" is a sardonic commentary on the comfort found in familiar, yet destructive, patterns. The song's urgent tone and visceral language emphasize the emotional turmoil and the relentless battle between self-awareness and denial. Ultimately, it serves as a cautionary tale about the perilous consequences of unexamined life choices and the weight of internal conflicts.
