On My Own
Embracing Solitude: Janosch Moldau's Poetic Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
The process of restraint
The experience of self-control or limitation
Fulfils my life I'm sane
Bringing fulfillment to my life, indicating mental stability
Life means to feel on
Life is about experiencing emotions deeply
The process of restraint
Repeating the idea of self-control or limitation in the journey of life
The blood of the lamb I'm sane
Referring to purity or sacrifice (symbolized by the blood of the lamb) contributing to mental stability
Life means to love on
Life is also about expressing love
Life means to live on
Emphasizing the various aspects of life: feeling, loving, living, holding on
Life means to hold on
Continuing to stress the importance of perseverance in life
I'll find myself
Expressing the journey of self-discovery
Within my mind
Locating oneself within the realms of one's thoughts
I'll find my way
Finding a path in life
My love inside
Discovering love internally
On my own
Being alone and self-reliant
On my own
Repeating the idea of independence and self-reliance
I'll find a place
Finding a secluded place
Where we can hide
A place to conceal oneself with another
I'll find my way
Continuing the journey of self-discovery
My love inside
Rediscovering internal love
On my own
Reiterating the theme of self-reliance
On my own
Emphasizing solitude and self-sufficiency
Jesus you walked the lines of life with me
Referencing the companionship of Jesus in life's journey
My Lord
Addressing Jesus as the guiding force
They played the games of Christianity
Commenting on the challenges associated with religious practices
Jesus you gave the breath of life to me
Acknowledging Jesus as the source of life
My Lord
Reaffirming Jesus as a central figure in the speaker's life
I'm on forlorn tracks please disciple me (!)
Expressing a sense of being lost and seeking guidance
I'm waiting here
Waiting with anticipation
I'm waiting here
Repeating the theme of waiting
I'll find myself
Repeating the journey of self-discovery
Within my mind
Locating oneself within the thoughts and reflections
I'll find my way
Finding a direction in life
My love inside
Rediscovering internal love
On my own
Being alone and self-reliant (repetition)
On my own
Reiterating the idea of independence (repetition)
I'll find a place
Finding a secluded place (repetition)
Where we can hide
Seeking a place to hide with another (repetition)
I'll find my way
Continuing the journey of self-discovery (repetition)
My love inside
Rediscovering internal love (repetition)
On my own
Being alone and self-reliant (repetition)
On my own
Reiterating the idea of independence (repetition)
On my own
Emphasizing solitude and self-sufficiency (repetition)
I'm on my own
Affirming a state of being alone
On my own...
Repeating the idea of being alone and self-reliant (repetition)
