“To come home from another home is a weird feeling, because people expect you to be the person you were when you left, and that’s impossible. You expect things to be exactly the same as when you left, and that’s impossible. Maybe it’s impossible to even truly come home once you’ve gone away because of those changes. Coming home is strange, because now that place is just a tiny bit less of a home.”
- Alex Brueckner (How To Come Home)
“Let someone love you just the way you are – as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.”
- Marc Hack
Do you know any songtexts that have phrases with a kind of hidden meaning in them? For example what Ed Sheeran often does:
“See I could do without a tan
On my left hand, where my fourth finger meets my knuckle”
(Ed Sheeran - Wake Me Up)
I’d appreciate any input. :)
