No One Home (The Lights Are Out)
This song explores the inner turmoil of a human being who has lost their sense of self in the voices, expectations, and illusions of a dark society. Surrounded by people, endless noise, and smiling faces hidden behind masks, the protagonist experiences a profound sense of isolation. The world is full of voices, yet none seem to speak the language of the heart.
The voices inside the mind become a metaphor for the beliefs, fears, and social conditioning that a person gradually mistakes for their own truth. Somewhere between the expectations of society and the longing for genuine connection, the inner light begins to fade. The soul cries out for guidance, calling upon mother, father, and the gods, searching for a doorway out of an invisible prison.
Yet the deeper question remains: How can we find the light when we no longer know which voices to trust?
