You were on your own

I was sure

Personal certainty about the situation described.

But I think I denied it anyway

Admission of a potential denial of the aforementioned certainty, suggesting internal conflict.


And it seemed

Reiteration of the perception that the person addressed was on their own.

You were on your own

Reiteration of the earlier statement confirming the person's perceived solitude.

I was sure

But I think I denied it anyway

Suggesting a continuation of the internal conflict expressed in line 4.

And I am so much closer now
