This poignant ballad explores the theme of escape and the pursuit of personal freedom juxtaposed with the longing for familiarity and home. The protagonist, Angela, is depicted as an individual caught in a perpetual struggle between her desire to break free from societal constraints and her yearning for comfort and acceptance. Her journey, symbolized by a car trip through unknown territories, reflects this internal conflict. The repeated phrase "it's a long time coming" signifies both her prolonged struggle for liberation and the overdue return to her roots. Despite the hardships she encounters on her voyage, Angela eventually finds solace in returning home, suggesting that true freedom may lie in embracing one's origins rather than fleeing from them. #Escape #Homecoming #InternalConflict
Angela
Lyrics
When you left this town, with your windows down
And the wilderness inside
Let the exits pass, all the tar and glass
'Til the road and sky align
The strangers in this town
They raise you up just to cut you down
Oh, Angela, it's a long time coming
When your Volvo lights lit up green and white
With the cities on the signs
But you held your course to some distant war
In the corners of your mind
From the second time around
The only love I ever found
Oh, Angela, it's a long time coming
Home at last
Were you safe and warm in your coat of arms
With your fingers in a fist?
Did you hear the notes, all those static codes
In the radio abyss?
Strangers in this town
They raise you up just to cut you down
Oh, Angela, it's a long time coming
Oh, Angela, spent your whole life running away
Home at last
Home at last
Vacancy, hotel room, lost in me, lost in you
Angela, on my knees, I belong, I believe
Home at last
Home at last
Home at last
Home at last
Home at last
Hmm-mmm-mmm
Hmm-mmm-mmm
Hmm
Hmm
