Home features an ambient and emotional atmosphere, appropriate for introducing the new theme of Idle Wave's first full length.
"'Home showcases a genuine and emotionally effective progression for Idle Wave with some of their most honest and heartfelt lyricism to date. The understated yet surreal beauty of the video directed by Kris Khunachak matches the intimacy and wistfulness of the single’s songwriting and creates a visually captivating experience with genuine emotional resonance."

lyrics
Home:
Bad news I’m not going with Nick
I don’t think that I will see you this afternoon
bad news I’m not going to sleep unless I get everything done, eventually
I don’t need you to worry
I don’t need you to worry about who I am
Congrats you got the job
you can take care of me any night you want
But the burden is that there was a space to fill
Do I deserve this
to occupy an empty bed
to understand why everyone goes their own way
everyone leaves eventually
Bad news cancel all your plans for the afternoon
it sucks that I wrote you off and I haven’t clean my room since you left it
I won’t be the problem
I won’t let you down tonight
I want to read more
I want to fill the fridge on my own
I want to beat this game before you get home
