Blackery, Emma - Going Home Lyrics






I’m at a loss for what to say
I never thought you’d be ripped away
Such a beautiful thing to lose
The world has just got darker without you

With hair a flash of blue
They fixed you at 22
You were the silver lining
But now the clouds remind me

You’re going home

Belongings on the floor
And your dog waiting by the door
Taken way before your time
Didn’t get to say goodbye

You’re going home

Your candle burned so bright
So many lives left to light
But it doesn’t matter now

Blackery, Emma Going Home Comments
  1. l.... m....

    this song still gets toi me two years later. truth be told, i forgot this song existed but i was reminded of it today and i remembered how much i loved it and how much it hurt me.

  2. K.... S....

    ❤❤❤

  3. A.... S....

    Anyone else listen to this song even tho it was a year ago just because its so beautiful.

  4. R.... M....

    the "didn't get to say goodbye" line had me bawling my eyes out. That hit a bit too close to home... :'(

  5. B.... A....

    LOVE THE LYRICS I'm sad now rip

  6. R.... C....

    finally this video is not privated

  7. �.... �....

    who's Christina...?

    �.... �....

    Κατερινα Σιδηροπουλου SERIOUSLY? That's so disrespectful. It's Christina Grimme. She was shot at her show by a 'fan' who then killed himself. Look at her channel and how much she was AND is loved. Zeldalover64 Christina Grimmie.

  8. K.... ....

    tried very hard not to cry. failed. But regardless it was a beautiful song.

  9. D.... ....

    I had heard of this girl she used to be one of my favorite singers I never realized this was her
    It kills me to know that a girl whom I fell in love with over the years has passed and I never new it
    Wow now I feel terrible

  10. B.... D....

    I never heard one of Christina's songs, but it is disgusting that people care more about Emma's hair (which they don't have a right to judge, no matter the circumstances) than about Christina's death.
    Get your priorities straight.

  11. R.... g....

    dont remember**

  12. R.... g....

    reminds me of my granda he fell in a stream and smash his head off a rock when inwas two im ten now i rlly remember him but al i know is that i miss him

  13. E.... C....

    I know this is horribly insensitive of me, and I really should know, but I forgot to want this video a while ago, and I simply can't remember (I'm so sorry, every life matters, I really believe in that, but so many deaths are happening these days) can I just ask, and I really don't want to upset people, but I'd like to understand the song a little better, sorry again, my deepest sympathy for the family and friends, but who is it that passed away?

    E.... C....

    Evolution Overload Christina Grimmie

  14. S.... ....

    First two lines...immediatly got me thinking of my dad...He's gone...gone "home"...I'd trade my life for his... so at least my brother could have a dad though he's 32 now...

  15. C.... k....

    I didn't even know you made a song for her, just saw this today. Christina was my role model for many years, I looked up to her, watched her go her way, cried for her in hapiness, hoped for her, was so statisfied the last year seing her living the life she always wanted. The time on the voice, were more people got to know who Christina Grimmie is. Eventhough I never met her I was so proud of her being such a strong, passionate and incredibly good person.
    I cried over her death like I cried over my first horse dying as a kid, like I cried over one of my classmates I had a crush on suddenly passing away. She'll live forever in my mind. Your song had me in tears, it's beautiful.

  16. m.... ....

    I love it.

  17. D.... M....

    Great song...

  18. C.... D....

    Really great video Emma. My friend died recently. She was only 15.

  19. M.... j....

    this is beautiful. thank you emma you're a big inspiration to everyone

  20. D.... V....

    rip Christina Grimmie we all miss you so much, i lost it during this tribute its perfect.

  21. D.... V....

    rip Christina Grimmie we all miss you so much, i lost it during this tribute its perfect.

  22. R.... W....

    This song is not great, intended meaning is sweet but the overall performance is sub par.

    R.... W....

    Are you completely inept? There are tons of comments below, many of which stating that she's complaining about her hair being discussed. Again, why post it if you don't want it judged?

    R.... W....

    shes saying that there are more important things to comment about. her friend was murdered and this was her tribute. and i was saying you got defensive when no one even commented on your post.shes not saying she doesnt want to be judged, shes saying she doesnt want people to focus on her hair when its a tribute to her murdered friend.

    R.... W....

    I wasn't being defensive, it was an after thought. Don't post something if you don't want it subject to others opinions. Doesn't matter the intended meaning, people have varying opinions and will post them if you allow. She could always disable comments.

    R.... W....

    They were ACTUAL friends or was she a fan? I've lost too many real friends to murder and I don't expect everyone to mourn for them, not everyone cares, and that's okay.

    R.... W....

    @Silvercordband yes but shes saying that instead of focusing on her hair, theres a more important subject. this song wasnt created for others to share their opinions on, it was a tribute. and even if you feel its necessary to add your opinion, that doesnt mean she cant make her point of the main reason for the song being more important than her hair- which most people were focusing on.

  23. C.... K....

    Salty water is falling from my seeing orbs.

  24. R.... S....

    VERRY good Emma hope everything gets better ❤️💛💚💙💜💟

  25. N.... D....

    Great job. Believe in yourself. Great song. Better than 90 % of the crap thats on the radio.good luck and god bless.

  26. g.... ....

    You have beautiful voice, how is it possible I didn't hear about you untill now?

  27. A.... P....

    This kills me, you have 2 songs, going home, and don't go home

  28. K.... W....

    The horrible part of the responses to this video is that some people are commenting lovely things, then you can see them posting hate on other videos.

  29. a.... g....

    love the meaning behind those lyrics... ilove your voice too... I bet Christina listened to this already and smiling above. everyday is for you CG. proudfan of Christina Grimmie here :)

  30. H.... E....

    Still so sad about her death

  31. J.... x....

    I know it's not made to gain money but I'd love to out this on my emotional so album on Spotify, this is truly one of my favourite songs. Love you Emma❤️

  32. A.... ....

    I thought the piano part got a little repetitive, but this was lyrically the best song you've ever written in my opinion.

  33. M.... B....

    You mentioned God in the description.... Are you religious? :/

    M.... B....

    from what I know she was experimenting with Christianity (going to church etc) but was getting a few people complaining about it, so maybe she just stopped talking about it online

  34. S.... A....

    Such a sweet tribute. <3

  35. D.... ....

    That was absolutely beautiful, I want to say more about it, but I'm kinda speechless after that.

  70. K.... W....

    <3 beautiful tribute. Christina is greatly missed.

  71. e.... ....

    Thank you so much for this. I'm really crying. To see one of my inspirations paying tribute to another one. Her death hit me so hard. Over a month later and I'm still shocked by how fucked up it is. Stay safe, Emma.
    Also the part about the dog made me cry even harder.

  72. E.... ....

    Wow your amazing

  73. A.... M....

    Wow..
    I've been watching you in those food videos with Ashens and Barry -- but I had no idea you were a musician.
    This was beautiful in a way I can't explain.
    I'm so sorry for your loss xx you aren't alone in your pain. This song hit very close to home for me, too.

    Thank you for sharing

  74. G.... ....

    This was really powerful, and that build at the end was amazing. All condolences to you, and everyone affected by this tragedy.

  75. t.... k....

    Would u be able to watch my newest covers of my channel and lmk what u think;)

  76. M.... C....

    People need to take a moment to think about what the hell is going on in this video before filling the comment section with complete idiocy during a time that should be filled with reflection and memories. Seriously, the people who are doing that probably make up less than 10% of the people who watch Emma's videos, but manage to ruin things for everyone else. This is not a time for stupid jokes and acting. We need to just shut the hell up and be good people, if only for this one moment. I know I'm a bit late in saying this, but it has to be said by as many people as possible. I'm sorry for ranting about it on this video Emma, I can tell how much this hurts, and I hope you can spend some time with the people you care about. I wouldn't even be able to function if something like this happened to me.

  77. C.... ....

    Does anyone know the notes for this song? Just wanna play it

  78. J.... x....

    This reaches me on such a deeper level... Thank you Emma, this song means so much to me

  79. M.... B....

    Oh my goodness Emma this piece is stunning<3 thank you for sharing this piece of music with us. I hope you may put it on an EP soon, so beautiful, thank you

  80. b.... ....

    This was beautiful

  81. M.... D....

    Beautiful song x I know it's got nothing to do with video and I'm sorry for being that person and you've probably already said this, what mic do you use?

  82. C.... ....

    Waoh - very nice tribute

  83. S.... C....

    I have goosebumps
    I can't stop crying

  84. N.... ....

    I'm sobbing at 5:20am, this video means so much to me, I loved Christina so much, I'm still so sad about her death, I'm so angry at the man who decided to turn up to a meet and greet with a gun, I didn't know her personally but I miss her

  85. B.... B....

    This is a beautiful song ❤️ R.I.P Christina

  86. r.... ....

    I'm fricking crying. Why did she have to die? I still can't believe she is gone.

  87. L.... K....

    had to stop the video...the feels got to me😢😢

  88. R.... s....

    emma please just ignore the comments from this video for your sake because i know it could be horrifying to lose someone you looked up to and that brought you so much inspiration but i hope you feel so much better

  89. a.... ....

    Emma this is so beautiful x

  95. T.... ....

  96. B.... B....

    Emma I'm so proud of you for being strong I broke down halfway through the song because of the fucking intensity in your voice I'm still crying actually rip Christina god I'm so sorry Emma

  97. J.... ....

    I will miss Christina I use to watch her videos just as much as I watch yours. This is a beautiful tribute and I really love the sound of it. Rest in Peace Christina :(.

  98. N.... E....

    It doesn't matter how well you play, or what technique you do or don't use. It matters that you're playing, and that you're loving what you play. This song is beautiful, thank you for sharing!

  99. C.... ....

    how does her voice get better every song she releases?? ❤
