Take Me Home Lyrics

Wrapped up, so consumed by all this hurt
If you ask me, don't know where to start
Anger, love, confusion, roads that go nowhere
I know there's somewhere better 'cause you always take me there

Came to you with a broken faith
Gave me more than a hand to hold
Caught before I hit the ground
Tell me I'm safe, you've got me now

But would you take the wheel if I lose control?
If I'm lying here, will you take me home?
Could you take care of a broken soul?
Will you hold me now? Will you take me home?
Will you take me home? Will you take me home?
Will you take me home? Will you take me home?

Hold a gun to my head, count 1, 2, 3
If it helps me walk away then it's what I need
Every minute gets easier the more you talk to me
You've rationalized my darkest thoughts, yeah you set them free

Came to you with a broken faith
Gave me more than a hand to hold
Caught before I hit the ground
Tell me I'm safe, you've got me now

You say space will make it better and time will make it heal
I won't be lost forever and soon I wouldn't feel like I'm haunted, oh falling

Will you take the wheel if I lose control?
If I'm lying here, will you take me home?
Could you take care of a broken soul?
Will you hold me now? Will you take me home?
Will you take me home? Will you take me home?
Will you take me home? Will you take me home?
Oh, will you take me home?
Will you take me home?

Don't Be So Hard On Yourself

Wrapped up, so consumed by all this hurt
If you ask me, don't know where to start
Anger, love, confusion, roads that go nowhere
I know there's somewhere better 'cause you always take me there

Came to you with a broken faith
Gave me more than a hand to hold
Caught before I hit the ground
Tell me I'm safe, you've got me now

Hold a gun to my head, count 1, 2, 3
If it helps me walk away then it's what I need
Every minute gets easier the more you talk to me
You've rationalized my darkest thoughts, yeah you set them free

Came to you with a broken faith
Gave me more than a hand to hold
Caught before I hit the ground
Tell me I'm safe, you've got me now

You say space will make it better and time will make it heal
I won't be lost forever and soon I wouldn't feel like I'm haunted, oh falling

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.

Like the other commenter, this song is majorly about overcoming adversity, and top of it all, being with someone who can help this individual think rationally rather than overthink their situation. Take Me Home translates to breaking free and finally finding yourself and returning to a warmer and better place, not just physically but mentally and emotionally too. Glynne herself explained on another track in her album "Don't Be Too Hard On Yourself" that she was in a dark place when that was written and this song is probably another page from her story, to make it somewhere and someplace.

Everything about this is so real. This song honestly sounds more like actual words instead of lyrics,like someone who's been struggling for so long has fallen to their knees in front of someone who's been completely unaware that they were falling apart,and they're crying uncontrollably and spilling their heart to the last emotion. There's no complexity to the songwriting or the production,because none of this is being dressed up as something easier for the listener to handle. All of it comes straight from the very saddened,distraught,and broken mind of a victim to their own life. The title is just the perfect way to sum up that desperation to be freed and exposed. I love this song so,so much.
