Lyrics
I don't know the limits that I could test
I am uncertain about the boundaries I can push or challenges I can face.
I don't have a frame of reference for what to expect
I lack a point of comparison to anticipate what is to come.
When I'm alone
In moments of solitude,
Talking to the mirror to meet someone new
I engage in self-talk with the mirror to encounter a new version of myself.
Saw myself as someone who knows what to do
I perceive myself as someone who understands how to handle situations.
When I'm alone
During my alone time,
That's when I'll think about the last time I let you down
I reflect on the past occasions when I disappointed you.
I said I wanna be alone
I express a desire to be by myself.
I am fine on my own
I assert that I am content and self-sufficient without others.
My own
Repetition emphasizing the speaker's independence.
My own
-My own
-When I said the piece I could no longer keep
I disclose a hidden truth or emotion I could no longer conceal.
That's when everything changed and I went to sleep
This revelation brings about a significant change, and I retreat into sleep.
I woke up alone
I awaken in solitude.
'Cause what if there's secrets that only you'll keep
Contemplating the possibility of secrets only you would keep.
I'm not crushed by the silence
The silence doesn't crush me, but the pain intensifies when we communicate.
It hurts worse when we speak
The impact of words is more hurtful than silence.
And what if I fail at faith and never take the leap
Fearing failure in matters of faith and reluctance to take risks.
I don't wanna be alone
Expressing a reluctance to be alone.
I'm not fine on my own
Contradicting earlier claims, admitting discomfort without company.
My own
Repetition underscoring the speaker's struggle with solitude.
My own
-My own
-I'll clean up the blood but the stain still remains
The speaker metaphorically cleans up the aftermath of a difficult situation, but the emotional stain remains.
Convince myself 'til I find the lie I'll explain
Attempting self-deception until discovering the lie that provides an explanation.
When I'm not alone
In moments when I'm not alone.
