Walk Me Home Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I could cry an ocean to keep me afloat
But the walls won't let me
I could leave the party, no one would know
But my feet are too heavy

[Pre-Chorus]
Some say she's fickle as water
Someone's daughter
Someone's 2 AM kiss in the night
Some know nothin' about her
Why she takes cold showers
Why she's a girl tryin' to get back inside

[Chorus]
Moon, walk me home
I'm dyin' here, dyin' here
Don't leave me alone
I'm tryin' here, tryin' herе
Save me from the night
Moon, walk mе home

[Verse 2]
If they could just breathe with my lungs for a day
Then they'd finally get it
How sometimes the truth is just too much to say
So it festers there while
[Pre-Chorus]
Some say she's fickle as water
Someone's daughter
Someone too drunk to ask for a ride
Some know nothin' about her
Why she takes cold showers
Why she's a girl tryin' to get back inside

[Chorus]
Moon, walk me home
I'm dyin' here, dyin' here
Don't leave me alone
I'm tryin' here, tryin' here
Save me from the night
Moon, walk me home

[Drop]
Walk me home
(Walk me home when)
(Walk me home when)
Save me from a wasted wish upon a star tonight
If you wouldn't mind
Moon, walk me home
Walk me home

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

“Walk Me Home” is the fourth single off Said The Sky’s sophomore album, Sentiment, and it serves as a collaboration with longtime friends ILLENIUM and Chelsea Cutler.

The song was originally written in the summer of 2020 where Trevor and Annika Wells wrote it in the middle of the night. Christensen created the guitar chords while Wells wrote the lyrics based on the universal experiences of women fearing to walk through the world. She shared in an Instagram post stating:

I started thinking about all the times I’ve not known how I would make it home – all the times I felt unsafe leaving a party or not knowing if I could trust the drink in my hand or the person next to me or what might happen at the end of the night. Walk Me Home, to me, is about the universal experience women face of fearing how to walk through the world.

“Walk Me Home” was originally teased alongside the rest of the track list for Sentiment on February 4, 2022. Trevor later released a video on February 5, 2022, revealing the name of every collaborator on his album along with short snippets of the songs. “Walk Me Home” was revealed to be the final song on the album, featuring ILLENIUM as co-producer and Chelsea Cutler as the vocalist. This was also confirmed in another image of the album’s track list, without the names crossed.

On February 7, 2022, Trevor announced that he would be releasing the song early in a tweet saying:

ALRIGHT I knew you guys would be excited for this one. My track with ILLENIUM and Chelsea Cutler is coming early. Walk Me Home will be dropping THIS FRIDAY.

Following, the song was released on February 11, 2022, a week before Christensen’s sophomore album was set to issue.
