On Our Own
Navigating Solitude: Unveiling the Emotional Journey in 'On Our Own'
Lyrics
The lights dim,
The atmosphere becomes subdued or darker.
Eyes turn black
There's a sense of emptiness or a lack of emotion in the eyes.
Looking right through me
Feeling unnoticed or unseen by someone.
With no more charm
The charm or appeal of the situation/person has faded.
I can't let you go
Unable to release or separate from someone/something.
I can't let you know, I care.
Keeping emotions or care hidden.
Now we are on our own.
Being independent or alone in a situation.
On our own.
Reiteration of being on one's own.
(Oh
Reinforcement of the feeling of being alone.
On our own
-On our own again)
-In your eyes
Observing that the other person won't express sadness for the speaker.
I see
-You won't cry
-for me
-Waning moon
Despite parting, there's an acknowledgment and acceptance of the situation.
We smile
-Parting ways
-No denial
-Daytime dreaming
Reflecting on vivid memories that feel incredibly real and uplifting.
Memories become
-Something so real that I feel like Im flying
-Im dying to know
Desire for clarity about the future or the next step in the relationship.
where do we go from here?
-where do I go from here
-(Oh
Reiteration of the feeling of being on one's own.
On our own
-On our own again)
-In your eyes
Reaffirmation of the lack of emotional expression from the other person.
I see
-You won't cry
-for me
-Waning moon
-We smile
-Parting ways
-No denial (in your eyes)
-The pain is real
Acknowledgment of the pain and finality of losing what was once cherished.
I can finally feel
-everything we had is gone
-The pain is real
-I can finally feel
-everything we had is gone,
-we had is gone
Reiteration of the loss experienced in the relationship.
