Alone in a World Without You
Yearning Echoes: Navigating Solitude in a World Without You
Lyrics
Since day one, you've been away
Expressing the duration of separation since the beginning.
And since then you...
Continuing the theme of absence and its impact.
You've made me stay
Highlighting the effect of the separation, causing the speaker to remain alone.
Alone in a world where I'd like to hear
Describing the isolated feeling in a world where the speaker desires approval.
The words of approval ringing in my ear
Expressing a yearning for positive words and encouragement.
Cause I don't ask for much
Emphasizing the speaker's modest expectations.
Yet I want it all
Contradictory desire for everything despite not asking for much.
I've gained nothing from this
Stating that the speaker has gained nothing from the situation.
You want to see me fall
Implies a desire from someone for the speaker's failure.
What we will stick to our passions
Encouraging a commitment to personal passions despite challenges.
We'll keep playing far and away
Commitment to continue pursuing passions despite obstacles.
Alone in a world where I'd like to see
Reiterating the loneliness, now seeking a genuine smile for security.
The smile on your face that means security
Desiring the comfort of seeing happiness reflected in someone's face.
Cause I don't ask for much
Repeating the theme of modest expectations despite wanting everything.
Yet i want it all
Contradictory desire for all despite asking for little, maintaining a paradox.
I've gained nothing from this
Reiterating the lack of gain from the current situation.
You want to see me fall
Suspecting a desire from someone to witness the speaker's downfall.
Don't live life by the norm' in society
Encouraging deviation from societal norms in living life.
Do what you have to do to keep you happy
Advising actions to maintain personal happiness, regardless of societal expectations.
So what if it doesn't matter to them at all
Expressing the insignificance of others' opinions if it brings personal fulfillment.
It makes sense to you keep on, don't stall
Encouraging persistence in personal choices, even if not understood by others.
Cause I don't ask for much
Reiterating the paradox of wanting everything while asking for little.
Yet I want it all
Continuing the contradictory desire for all despite modest requests.
I've gained nothing from this
Emphasizing the absence of personal gain from the current situation.
You want to see me fall
Suggesting a perceived desire from someone to witness the speaker's failure.
