In an interview with Rolling Stone shortly after Gone Now’s release, Jack said that the album includes memories of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the death of his sister from cancer soon after. This song speaks specifically to those two tragedies.
That loss is a filter that goes through your whole...
[Intro: Venturini]
The pain of waiting alone at the corner
Trying to get myself back home
I gotta get myself back home soon
I gotta get myself back home soon
[Verse 1: Antonoff]
I guess it's true
The only reason that I called you last night
It's the reason I been standing on a wire
It's this dream I keep having where I'm begging
[Pre-Chorus 1: Antonoff]
Just to give myself a break (Hey)
But there's nothing I wouldn't do to wake up and remember it
I wanna wake up and remember
So take my clothes, that's better
[Chorus 1: Antonoff]
I think pain is waiting alone at the corner
Tryna get myself back home, yeah
Looking like everybody
Knowing everybody lost somebody
I'm standing here in the cold and
I gotta get myself back home soon
Looking like everybody
Knowing everybody lost somebody
Everybody lost somebody
Everybody lost somebody
[Verse 2: Antonoff]
I waited 'til the night was over
Cursed the sun for coming up below her
Cashed the checks I had, I didn't own
Standing on the corner, God I wonder when
[Pre-Chorus 2: Antonoff]
I'll give myself a break (Hey)
But there's nothing I wouldn't do to settle up with Heaven
It's a debt I gotta settle in Heaven
Take my clothes, I'm begging
[Chorus 1: Antonoff]
I think pain is waiting alone at the corner
Tryna get myself back home, yeah
Looking like everybody
Knowing everybody lost somebody
I'm standing here in the cold and
I gotta get myself back home soon
Looking like everybody
Knowing everybody lost somebody
[Bridge: Antonoff]
I'm lost
I know that I'm lost
Lost in a world without you
I know that I'm lost
I know that I'm lost
Lost in a world without you
[Verse 3: Antonoff]
And there's a reason I wake up alone in strange places
A reason I see myself in a million faces
A reason I can't stop it all from changing
So come on, motherfucker, you survived
[Pre-Chorus 2: Antonoff]
You gotta give yourself a break (Hey)
But there's nothing I wouldn't do to settle up with Heaven
It's a debt I gotta settle in Heaven
Take my clothes, I'm begging
[Chorus 2: Antonoff]
Everybody lost somebody
Everybody lost somebody
Everybody lost somebody
Everybody lost somebody
[Outro: Venturini]
I gotta get myself back home soon
I gotta get myself back home soon
