I must be off because my interpretation doesn't seem to gel with the others. I LUV the band (new to them) and I like this song, but it's sad. It appears to be about someone who has something to say (to someone perhaps) but he cannot get out the words. He feels he's missed opportunites in his life due to his inability to take action. And it feels as though the walls are closing in on him while he's running out of time to take action. He views someone as "home," where is where he wants to be but doubts he will ever reach there. Very sad song by a talented band.
@MaryMaryQuiteContrary Hm. I really can see where you're going with this interpretation and I like it. There does seem to be a feel of regret, despair, or resignation to the lyrics and melody. A lot of questions are posed either directly or subtly.
