Lyrics
When I'm alone
Expressing a feeling of solitude
I've been running
Describing a continuous effort to escape
Away from love that doesn't even exist
Avoiding love that seems non-existent
Nikiomba
Asking for something, possibly seeking help or connection
Praying that you remember to pray for me
Requesting prayers for oneself
When I'm alone
Reiterating the feeling of loneliness
When I'm alone at home
Being alone at home, emphasizing solitude
I only think about you
Focusing thoughts exclusively on someone special
I can't believe you're gone
Expressing disbelief in the absence of the person
When I'm alone at home
Repetition of thoughts about the absent person
I only think about you
Continued disbelief in the absence
I can't believe you're gone
Reiteration of the emotional impact of the absence
I lose control
Describing a loss of control, possibly emotional
Siwezi kuchocha mimi nimengoja
Expressing waiting and anticipation
Nimetafuta lakini n'kakosa
Searching for something but facing disappointment
Nashuku ulijua vile kutakuwa
Suspecting that someone knew what would happen
Ukajitoa
Referring to someone's voluntary withdrawal
I hope uko poa
Wishing for the well-being of the absent person
Poa
Reiteration of well-being
I'm in a place
Describing a challenging environment
Where everything I see will kill my sight
Expressing a need for grace in a difficult situation
I need grace
Concern about losing one's sanity and the ability to cope
If I lose my mind how will I fight?
Questioning how to handle a mental struggle
When I'm alone at home
Reiteration of thoughts about the absent person at home
I only think about you
Continued disbelief in the absence at home
I can't believe you're gone
Repetition of the emotional impact of the absence at home
When I'm alone at home
Repetition of thoughts about the absent person at home
I only think about you
Continued disbelief in the absence at home
I can't believe you're gone
Reiteration of the emotional impact of the absence at home
I lose control
Describing a loss of control, possibly emotional, again
Siwezi kuchocha mimi nimengoja
Expressing waiting and anticipation, again
Nimetafuta lakini n'kakosa
Searching for something but facing disappointment, again
Nashuku ulijua vile kutakuwa
Suspecting that someone knew what would happen, again
Ukajitoa
Referring to someone's voluntary withdrawal, again
I hope uko poa
Wishing for the well-being of the absent person, again
Poa
Reiteration of well-being, again
Poa poa
Repetition of well-being, possibly emphasizing
Poa poa
