About
β‘ Asteriaβs first transmission β a homesick little song from somewhere between memory and dreams.
Lyrics
Intro
It's late again
The whole room's quiet
Except for the rain
And something playing through my headphones
I don't know where I'm going
I just know I miss somewhere
I can't remember
Verse 1
There's a photograph underneath my bed
Of a place I swear I've never been
I keep it close like it knows my name
Like maybe I was happier back then
The streetlights blur against the glass
While old songs play from the radio
I close my eyes and let them take me
Somewhere I was supposed to know
Pre-Chorus
Maybe home was never a place
Maybe it was a voice
Maybe it was somebody
I never got to keep
Chorus
I'm homesick for a memory
I'm missing something I can't see
A bedroom, a voice, a midnight sky
A version of me that never said goodbye
And every song keeps pulling me
Back to somewhere I've never been
If home is just a feeling
Then why can't I find my way back in?
Verse 2
I write your name on cassette tapes
Then rewind them till the letters fade
There's something comforting in the static
Like the silence knows what I'm afraid to say
My headphones tangled in my hair
Three in the morning, I'm still awake
The moon is sitting by my window
Like it came here for my sake
Pre-Chorus
Maybe home was the sound of rain
Against somebody's window
Maybe it was the way
The night made everything feel slow
Chorus
I'm homesick for a memory
I'm missing something I can't see
A bedroom, a voice, a midnight sky
A version of me that never said goodbye
And every song keeps pulling me
Back to somewhere I've never been
If home is just a feeling
Then why can't I find my way back in?
Bridge
Maybe I don't need to go back
Maybe there was nothing there
Maybe I'm chasing a feeling
That only existed in my head
But if I find it someday
I hope it sounds like this
A little bit broken
A little bit beautiful
Something I almost missed
Final Chorus
I'm homesick for a memory
But maybe that's okay with me
I'll keep the stars, I'll keep the rain
I'll keep the songs that know my name
And if I never find that place
I'll make a home out of today
Turn the static into music
And let the lonely fade away
Outro
It's late again
The whole room's quiet
Except for the rain
And now I finally understandβ
Maybe home
Was never somewhere I had to find.
Maybe home
Was something I could make.
