Holmes may refer to:
Comet Holmes (official designation: 17P/Holmes) is a periodic comet in the Solar System, discovered by the British amateur astronomer Edwin Holmes on November 6, 1892. Although normally a very faint object, Holmes became notable during its October 2007 return when it temporarily brightened by a factor of about half a million, in what was the largest known outburst by a comet, and became visible to the naked eye. It also briefly became the largest object in the Solar System, as its coma (the thin dissipating dust ball around the comet) expanded to a diameter greater than that of the Sun (although its mass remained minuscule).
Comet Holmes was discovered by Edwin Holmes on November 6, 1892, while he was conducting regular observations of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31). Its discovery in 1892 was possible because of an increase in its magnitude similar to the 2007 outburst; it brightened to an approximate magnitude of 4 or 5 before fading from visibility over a period of several weeks.
Holmes is an English-language surname with several origins.
The name can be a variant of the surname Holme. This surname has several etymological origins: it can be derived from a name for someone who lived next to a holly tree, from the Middle English holm; it can also be derived from the Old English holm and Old Norse holmr. Another origin of Holmes is from a placename near Dundonald, or else a place located in the barony of Inchestuir. The surname is also sometimes an Anglicised form of the Gaelic Mac Thomáis; similarly, Holmes can also be a variant of Cavish, derived as an Anglicised form of Mac Thámhais.

I've come to terms with who I am inside my mind
Planning for the future men she gets with after me
Kind of girl my friends might think anything that makes me happy
Moving back to those times fucking up when we were only kids
Thinking back those were times that mattered
Getting older now most of us still think just like we did
Does all of this bullshit really matter
Woah
Time is all we have so fucking rethink that we have in store
Woah
You're body's fucking rotting as we're waiting to live life
Waiting to live life
Speaking of, I'm on the ledge again
Peering down to find myself my fallen friend
Hoping I'm awake for long
Bad decision I know but it's the only one I've got
Moving back to those times fucking up when we were only kids
Thinking back those were times that mattered
Getting older now most of us still think just like we did
Does all of this bullshit really matter
Woah
Time is all we have so fucking rethink that we have in store
Woah
You're body's fucking rotting as we're waiting to live life
Waiting to live life
When it's coming up and I can't replace it
