My House Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
The singer feels like an unwanted presence is invading their space, creeping in like cold air. This presence is unsettling, making them feel exposed and vulnerable. They hear it moving around but can’t see anyone, which adds to the eerie feeling. The line about letting it in suggests that, at some point, they may have allowed this person or feeling into their life, but now it has taken over. The presence acts like it belongs, but it remains silent, making it even more haunting and suffocating.

[Chorus]
The singer never expected to feel so overwhelmed and emotionally drained by this presence. Being around it makes them feel unwell, both mentally and physically, like it’s poisoning their thoughts. They’ve reached their limit and realize they need to get rid of it. The repeated line about it being their house symbolizes reclaiming control over their own space, emotions, and identity. The reference to their soul not belonging to this presence anymore shows they are breaking free from its influence and finally taking their power back.

[Verse 2]
The presence has gotten even closer, now right outside their bedroom door. They can hear it moving, feeling it creeping in under their sheets, making them uneasy. They try to avoid it, but it won’t go away. The moment of confrontation happens when they come face to face with it, lying on their pillow, symbolizing how deeply this presence has invaded their life. However, they make it clear that it can’t stay any longer, signaling their decision to push it out.

[Chorus]
The singer repeats their frustration, emphasizing how much this presence has negatively affected them. They feel sick and exhausted by its constant presence. This time, there’s even more urgency in their words—they are fully determined to remove this influence from their life. The house again represents their personal space, whether physical or emotional, and they declare that it’s time for this presence to leave for good. The mention of their soul shows that this was something deeply personal, but they are now reclaiming themselves.

[Bridge]
Here, the singer firmly states that they no longer belong to this presence. They’ve finally detached themselves emotionally and mentally. The repeated line about not being “yours anymore” reinforces their newfound independence. Saying “it’s my house” is a final, confident declaration that they are taking back control, making it clear that this presence no longer has any power over them.

[Breakdown]
This section repeats the eerie feeling from the beginning, emphasizing how the presence made the singer feel trapped, cold, and uncomfortable. It reminds the listener of the suffocating atmosphere before the singer decides to take action.

[Chorus]
Once again, the chorus highlights the overwhelming emotions the singer has experienced. They are completely done with the presence that has been haunting them. The repetition of the words “it’s my house” and “it’s my soul” shows their final push to take back their space and identity. This time, there’s no hesitation—they are fully ready to remove this toxic influence and move forward.

[Outro]
The outro is a simple but powerful ending, reinforcing the idea that it’s finally time to let go. The repeated words add a sense of relief and finality, showing that the singer has made their decision and is moving on.
