Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis makna hidup yang terkandung dalam lirik lagu "Jalan Pulang" karya Closehead menggunakan pendekatan kritik sastra mimetik. Metode ini menggunakan deskriptif kualitatif dengan teknik analisis isi. Lirik lagu dianalisis sebagai cerminan realitas kehidupan manusia yang mengandung nilai filosofis mendalam tentang perjalanan hidup, penyesalan, harapan, dan pencarian jati diri. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa lirik lagu "Jalan Pulang" merepresentasikan berbagai dimensi makna hidup, antara lain:
(1) kerinduan akan nilai-nilai asali kehidupan, (2) kesadaran akan kefanaan dan perjalanan waktu, (3) konflik batin antara kenyataan dan harapan, (4) pencarian identitas dan kepulangan sebagai metafora pencapaian tujuan hidup,
serta (5) dimensi spiritual berupa kepasrahan dan penerimaan. Melalui pendekatan mimetik, terbukti bahwa lirik lagu ini bukan sekadar teks musikal, melainkan sebuah representasi literer yang mencerminkan pengalaman eksistensial universal manusia.
