Used to Be Yours
Embracing Change: Facing the Fear of Solitude in 'Used to Be Yours'
Lyrics
You can't lay your hands
You're unable to possess or control
Upon what used to be yours
What once belonged to you
Harder to let go
Difficult to release
For fear of moving on
Due to the fear of progressing
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
Isn't that a common fear for everyone?
So incapable of being alone
Feeling incapable of being by oneself
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
Isn't that a common fear for everyone?
So incapable of making a home
Feeling incapable of creating a sense of home
I never saw
I never understood
What makes me who I am or who I will be
What defines my identity or future
Better not to know what goes on
It's preferable not to be aware of
Behind faces we choose to see
What happens behind the masks we display
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
Isn't that a common fear for everyone?
So incapable of being alone
Feeling incapable of solitude
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
Isn't that a common fear for everyone?
So incapable of making a home
Feeling unable to establish a place of belonging
Alone
Being by oneself
With the hope in your eyes
With optimism evident in your eyes
Pacified by my lies
Calmed or satisfied by my falsehoods
And I'm back in your arms
Yet, I'm back in your embrace
But I've never felt so alone
But never have I felt so isolated
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
Isn't that a common fear for everyone?
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
-Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
-So incapable of being alone
Feeling incapable of solitude
Isn't that what everyone is afraid of?
Isn't that a common fear for everyone?
So incapable of making a home
Feeling unable to establish a sense of home
