This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I got an up close glimpse of the outside world
It's an awful big place, well that's for damn sure
Seen more of this life than most have seen
And it's taken a mighty big toll on me
It sure feel good to be free
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Sometimes you gotta face the light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
It's gonna take a long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
Back home
Did you ever see a man have a heart attack?
It'll open your eyes and stop you in your tracks
So I threw away my last cigarette
Get it right this time, I'll clean up my act
That's a hard cold fact
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Sometimes you gotta face the light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
I'm gonna take a long way back home
I'm gonna take the long way back home
Oh, back home
So many things I ain't done yet
So many things I've done that I forget
I just need a place to rest my head
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Some days you gotta face the light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
I'm gonna take the long way back home
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Some days you gotta face the light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
I'm gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
Back home
It's an awful big place, well that's for damn sure
Seen more of this life than most have seen
And it's taken a mighty big toll on me
It sure feel good to be free
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Sometimes you gotta face the light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
It's gonna take a long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
Back home
Did you ever see a man have a heart attack?
It'll open your eyes and stop you in your tracks
So I threw away my last cigarette
Get it right this time, I'll clean up my act
That's a hard cold fact
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Sometimes you gotta face the light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
I'm gonna take a long way back home
I'm gonna take the long way back home
Oh, back home
So many things I ain't done yet
So many things I've done that I forget
I just need a place to rest my head
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Some days you gotta face the light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
I'm gonna take the long way back home
Some days I feel alright
Some days I can't wait until it's night
Some days you gotta face the light
Get back in the ring, put on your gloves and fight
I think it's gonna take some time
To find a way to ease my mind
I'm gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
So I'm gonna take the long way back home
Back home

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
