Home Alone
Embracing Solitude: Yearning for Connection
Lyrics
I'm awake
I am awake
Can you see me now?
Asking if the other person can see the speaker now
And if you stay
Inviting the person to stay
We can lounge about
Suggesting spending leisure time together
And I'm getting tired
Expressing fatigue
But you make me feel awake
Despite tiredness, the person makes the speaker feel alive
And at the end of the night
Referencing the end of the night
Maybe we can stay up late
Suggesting staying up late as a possibility
'Cause I'm just all alone, sitting at home
Feeling lonely and alone
And you should stay if you don't mind
Inviting the person to stay if they don't mind
I'll be okay if you stay
Expressing that the speaker will be okay if the person stays
'Cause you should stay if you don't mind
Encouraging the person to stay if they are willing
On my own
Emphasizing the speaker being on their own
I miss you here
Expressing a sense of missing the person
The sun is gone
Describing the absence of the sun and the presence of clouds
And the clouds are near
Setting a melancholic atmosphere
And I'm getting tired of being
Expressing weariness of being alone
By myself
Stating the desire for company
'Cause at the end of the night
Referring again to the end of the night
Maybe you can help yourself
Suggesting that the person can help themselves at the end of the night
'Cause I'm just all alone, sitting at home
Repeating the feeling of being alone at home
And you should stay if you don't mind
Reiterating the invitation for the person to stay
I'll be okay if you stay
Expressing the speaker's assurance of being okay if the person stays
'Cause you should stay if you don't mind
Reiterating the encouragement for the person to stay
'Cause I'm just all alone, sitting at home
Repeating the feeling of being alone at home
And you should stay if you don't mind
Reiterating the invitation for the person to stay
I'll be okay if you stay
Expressing the speaker's assurance of being okay if the person stays
'Cause you should stay if you don't mind
Reiterating the encouragement for the person to stay
