We're Coming Home Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You know we're fallin' to zero
Hurtin' much more than it did before
I'm always playing the hero
Cleaning your mess as you walk out the door

I'm counting things'll change now
Taking it back where it all began
Don't like this merry-go-round
Gotta believe, believe we can

[Chorus]

We're coming home we're coming home
You know it's now or never

No afterglow this time I know
But I'm feelin' kinda better

We're coming home we're coming home
You know it's now or never

This time I know, this time I know
It's going on forever

[Verse 2]

I'm counting down to zero
Diggin' my heels in the dirt again
You're not a superhero
Saving the world to the bitter end

I think it's time that you knew
I'm seeing it all now in black and white
I'd do it all to save you
Changing the world ain't gonna make it right

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
See me walk away
You know it's now or never
See me walk away
I'm feelin' kinda better

[Chorus]

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I love the funky electro in this song, lyrics arent exactly deep but who cares. It's just a feel good song that makes you want to boogie your ass off. I'm not gonna do a song meaning for the lyrics they dont have any deep meaning. Just dance to the beat and shake your head like a crazy person. MWAH!

Posted by James Ash on the official RT forum:

We're coming home was original called 'We Could Be Zeroes" (A line you can still here repeated in a robot voice quite late in the track). With that song we really wanted to have someone nice and fast (and non-House music) to really give the album a kick up the arse! The song itself is about being left behind - then having the courage to really stick it to everyone and emerge stronger than ever before...
