Send "Home" Ringtone to Cell

Everything is catching up with me.
I await to find I'm not at all where I should be.
And it feels I'm getting to the end.
And it's hard to figure out what's real and what's pretend.

To break from what we're tied too.
God knows how much I've tried too.
And I am still inside you.
And I am still inside you.

I escape every now and then.
And to think I find myself back here again.
And again.

I used to know who I was until you came along.
I return to the only place I've ever felt I belong.

To break from what we're tied too.
God knows how much I've tried too.
And I am still inside you.
And I am still inside you.

    General Comment:This song reminds me of Battlestar Galactica. Say what you will, but I think Trent could be that big of a dork. Also, the beginning sounds like the intercom call on BSG.

    General Comment:It's that feeling when you meet someone that you can't live without. Every now and then, he feels he can live without her; but that feeling doesn't last very long.

    General Comment:is there anyway to get a version of with teeth in america that has this track on it? or do i HAVE to download it and burn it to the cd? my buddy downloaded the album on a bit-torrent and told me about it - i was pissed that it wasnt on the album that i bought, it's a great song and i agree with maynordnreznor's interpretation as well

    General Comment:This song was hard as hell to find O.O;;
    but yes, for those of us who didn't have this as a bonus track on their with teeth album, you can download it off limewire. But, be prepared, you will need pateince waiting for someone to log on with this song (took me about 1:30 hours before I found it)

    General Comment:I change my interpretation...I think this song is about a struggle with alcoholism/drugs, as is the entire with teeth album (although i'm not saying he isn't sober now)...I also agree that this song is a reference to sanctified, as there are many PHM references on with teeth. He returns to drugs, the only place he thinks he belongs. He is still inside the temtress of drugs. He can't break from drugs, even though he's tried. Sometimes he stops, but never for good...I think it's rather obvious...

    General Comment:My interpretation of this song derives from 'la mer'. He refers to drowning as returning home. In this he also speaks of going home. It's about death...
