When I'm Alone
Embracing Self-Discovery: "When I'm AloneLyrics
Tell me what you can recall about me
Tell me what memories or impressions you have of me
Who was that girl
Who was the person I used to be?
What was that world
What was the environment or circumstances surrounding that time?
All the things I did before
All the actions I engaged in previously
Can’t seem to do them anymore
I find it difficult to replicate those actions now
Who was that girl
Who was the person I used to be?
What was that world
What was the environment or circumstances surrounding that time?
No, no, no
Emphatic refusal or denial
Maybe
Possibly considering the potential
I could get to know me
Exploring the idea of discovering oneself
*And what* I need
Understanding one's necessities or desires
When I’m alone
During times of solitude or isolation
Slowly I could learn to love me
Gradually learning to appreciate and accept oneself
*And what* I see
Understanding aspects of oneself
When I’m alone
During times of solitude or isolation
I can feel the eyes on me
Sensing the attention of others on oneself
But can they truly ever see
Questioning if others truly understand or perceive the real self
Who is that girl?
Asking about the identity of the past self
What is her world?
Exploring the world or circumstances of the past
So can I know when to care
Questioning whether one can learn to care about oneself at specific times
Or can I just learn to love myself again
Contemplating if it's possible to regain self-love
Maybe
Possibly considering the potential
I could get to know me
Exploring the idea of discovering oneself
And what I need
Understanding one's necessities or desires
When I’m alone
During times of solitude or isolation
Slowly
Gradually
I could learn to love me
Learning to appreciate and accept oneself
And what I see
Understanding aspects of oneself
When I’m alone
During times of solitude or isolation
Bridge
A transition or segment break
I can feel me getting stronger
Sensing personal growth and empowerment
With every word and whisper
Feeling stronger with every spoken word or quiet utterance
I’ve
Expressing a personal journey
been bleeding
Experiencing pain or emotional distress
I have learnt how to heal
Learning to recover from wounds or difficulties
Now am I something to believe in
Questioning if one has become a reliable or credible figure for belief
Maybe
Possibly considering the potential
I could get to know me
Exploring the idea of discovering oneself
And what I need
Understanding one's necessities or desires
When I’m alone
During times of solitude or isolation
Slowly
Gradually
I could learn to love me
Learning to appreciate and accept oneself
And what I see
Understanding aspects of oneself
When I’m alone
During times of solitude or isolation
