Where I Belong is one of the first solo songs by Ryan Ross. It’s about Ryan’s rough journey through his musical career. He’s been absent in the past years, trying to figure out who he really is as a musician. But he says on his Twitter:
Music is where I belong.
If you wanna see the sun
You're gonna have to dig your way out
This war ain't gonna fix itself
Don't need to fear a hand for help
I know I've fallen down a well
And I can't get out by myself
I'm cold, I'm hungry, but I'm bored
I'm in a rut but still adored
Although I know it's not
Where I belong
The glitter is gone
I'm done with the dark
I know I've been wrong
And I hope
It's where I belong
I know I should've never left
I'd gotten tired being buried
Resting my head on broken stones
In the cave that was my home
I've fallen sick but getting well
I hope that I've still got your help
I'm hungry just to prove myself
To myself and nowhere else
Could I have figured out
Where I belong
The glitter is gone
I'm done with the dark
I know I've been wrong
And I hope
It's where I belong
Where I belong
The glitter is gone
I'm done with the dark
I know I've been wrong
(And I hope) Where I belong
The glitter is gone
I'm done with the dark
I know I've been wrong
(I know)
