Song about longing and community
Where'd you go? I miss you so.
Seems like it's been forever that you've
been gone.
Look around, our country's gone to
shit. Some days I wanna quit or just be a normie for a bit.
And it breaks my heart how you were once so strong,
but now it feels like your
spirit's entirely gone. And I find myself watching old clips from
the golden years on YouTube, trying to hold back tears.
A man fueled by a burning love for his folk could see the people's eyes beaming
with adoration and hope. And I want you to know
that I will never give up,
although I'm stuck here waiting, outnumbered by strangers, hoping that
among the ruins you'll reappear. Me and the rest who are still loyal here.
Where'd you go?
Where'd you go? I miss you so. Seems like it's been
forever that you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so. Seems like it's been
forever that you were gone.
Please come back home.
Come back home. You know the place where we used to live.
Used to hike with grandma and the kids.
Used to see the whole village at the football field on every Sunday, or
dance at the maytree from old to young age.
Today, we're atomized, alienated, and our sense of community and
trust has faded. Met with hate and ridicule when I try galvanizing them,
and
it hurts 'cause I care so much I would die for them.
But I want you to know I will never give up, although I'm stuck here waiting,
outnumbered by strangers, hoping that among the ruins you'll reappear.
Me and the rest who are still loyal here. Where'd you go?
Where'd you go? I miss you so. Seems like it's been
forever that you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so. Seems like it's been
forever that you were gone.
Please come back home.
I want you to know I will never give up, although I'm stuck here waiting,
outnumbered by strangers. Brought to erase every trace we existed,
which
they made us believe we deserve, so don't resist it.
But long as I live, I will feed the spark
that might rekindle the fire in my
people's heart. And maybe one day from the ruins you'll
reappear
and join the rest of us here, saying...
Where'd you go? I miss you so. Seems
like it's been forever that you've been
gone.
Where'd you go? I miss you so.
Seems like it's been forever that you
were gone. Please come back
home.
Please
come back home. Please come back home. Please come back home.
Please come back home.
