Starting Over
Embracing Change: A Journey of Redemption and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
You showed up one October night, and nothing's ever been the same
You entered my life one October night, and it profoundly changed everything.
Only one thing that you saw in me, I didn't see it 'til it was too late
You noticed something in me that I didn't recognize until it was too late.
Now I'm standing here fixing all the mess I watched you make
I am now standing here, fixing the mess I observed you create.
And it's such a shame, what I gave away, the person I became
Regretfully, I gave away something valuable, transforming into a person I regret becoming.
Even though it's over, I'm still carrying the weight
Although the relationship is over, I still bear the emotional burden of the past.
But I just wanna sit it down and walk away
I just want to let go and move on from this situation.
I'm starting over, I'm letting go
I am embarking on a journey of starting anew, leaving the past behind.
There are worse things than being alone
Being alone is not the worst thing; there are more challenging situations.
I fell so far, made mistakes of my own
I've fallen far and made my own mistakes in the process.
Thought I knew it all, I don't
I thought I had all the answers, but I now realize my ignorance.
It changed me forever, I can't go back, but now, I know better
The experience has changed me permanently, and there's no going back, but it taught me valuable lessons.
One year later, ten years older, one step closer
Time has passed, and I've aged, taking steps toward a new beginning.
To starting over
Reaffirmation of the commitment to start over and leave the past behind.
Thought I was strong, maybe I'm not who I thought I was
I thought I was strong, but I question my self-perception.
Ran so far just to find that it's not what I really want
I ran far seeking something, only to discover it wasn't what I truly wanted.
All that I can do is try and pick these pieces up
All I can do now is try to piece my life back together.
And get back to the only thing I've found that's really worth my love
I must return to what truly matters and is deserving of my love.
I'm starting over, I'm letting go
Reiteration of the commitment to start over and let go of the past.
There are worse things than being alone
Emphasizing that being alone is not the worst situation.
I fell so far, made mistakes of my own
I've faced challenges and made mistakes, but I'm moving forward.
Thought I knew it all, I don't
Admitting that I thought I knew it all, but I was mistaken.
It changed me forever, I can't go back, but now, I know better
Reflecting on the enduring impact of the experience, acknowledging personal growth.
One year later, ten years older, one step closer
Time has passed, and I've aged, taking steps toward a new beginning (repeated).
To starting over
Reaffirmation of the commitment to start over and leave the past behind (repeated).
I'm relearning my old song
I am rediscovering the essence of my old self.
Back to what I knew all along
Returning to what I knew and believed all along.
I grieve for all I've lost and what it cost
Expressing grief for what I lost and the cost of those losses.
Even though it's over, I'm still carrying the weight
Despite the end of the relationship, I still carry the emotional weight.
Maybe when I sit it down, I'll be okay
Hoping that once I confront and process the situation, I'll find peace.
I'm starting over, I'm letting go
Reiteration of the commitment to start over and let go of the past (repeated).

You showed up one October night
You entered my life one October night (repeated).
Now, nothing's gonna be the same
Emphasizing
