Letting go isn’t a moment. It’s a practice.
You tell yourself you’re done. “I’m good, through and through.” You’ve processed the pain, you’re sleeping fine, you’ve moved on — and then, out of nowhere, it hits you: “boom boom boom boomerang.” The memory, the wound, the old version of yourself comes spinning right back. That’s not failure. That’s the human experience.
Now. shared: “We wanted the song to sit in that contradiction. There’s a real ache in the verses, but the chorus hits like a pop release — because that’s how it actually feels.” Moving on isn’t one clean break — it often means taking “the same decision, over and over, until one day it finally lands.” The bridge points to the issue: “all this time we were only running from our fears.” What keeps coming back isn’t the person, situation, or even the decision itself… It’s the unfinished work inside us.
So, how do you move forward? As always, we link the message of the song with Scripture. Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all things through him who strengthens me.” The apostle Paul didn’t write those words from a place of easy victory. He wrote these words while he was in prison, mid-process, unsure of what would happen next. He had many opportunities to revisit earlier decisions, to doubt Christ, or even to choose an easier way out of this situation. But he didn’t. He held course and looked upward for his strength. The strength that God offers isn’t a single download. It’s daily, renewable, available every time the boomerang (‘the unfinished work inside us’) swings back around.
So, stop measuring your freedom by how far you’ve thrown something. Measure it by how quickly you return to God when it comes back. Surrender isn’t a one-time act — it’s a posture. Each time decisions (‘the unfinished work inside us’) return like a boomerang, give it back… give it to Him. That’s how healing actually works.
Give “Boomerang” a listen, and let it sit in that tension with you — the ache and the hope together, and measure your freedom by how quickly you partner with God when it feels like decisions keep returning. “… I felt my world could finally start to turn around again.”
(Related scripture: Philippians 4:13; Isaiah 43:18–19; Lamentations 3:22–23)
Background:
This is a very special one for us. It feels like finally coming home while at the same time kicking off a new chapter for us. We love this song. And it is yours. Now.
"Boomerang" is about letting go — and how rarely letting go is clean. The song lives in that gap between deciding you're done with someone and actually being free of them. You tell yourself you're over it ("I'm good, through and through"), you've done the work, you're sleeping fine — and then the person, the memory, the old version of you comes spinning right back. That's the boomerang: not the relationship itself, but everything you keep throwing away that refuses to stay gone.
We wanted the song to sit in that contradiction. There's a real ache in the verses, but the chorus hits like a pop release — because that's how it actually feels. Moving on isn't one decision; it's the same decision, over and over, until one day it finally lands.
What we hope listeners take away: letting go is a process, not a moment. If it keeps coming back, you're not failing — you're just human, mid-throw.
FUN FACTS
The "boom boom boom boomerang" hook started as a placeholder we sang to find the rhythm — it stuck, and the whole song built around it.
The brightest, most danceable part of the track carries the heaviest line. We leaned into that on purpose.
