Alone
Embracing Solitude: Zander Reese's Poetic Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
I'm sinking and hiding
The speaker feels overwhelmed and sinking emotionally.
Fading from view
The speaker is gradually becoming less visible or important.
This chapter's getting boring
The current phase of life or relationship is becoming uninteresting.
I can't find myself in you
The speaker is unable to find their identity within the other person.
Doors are closing
Opportunities are closing, and the speaker wants to avoid damage.
Please don't leave a scratch
Requesting not to harm or hurt the speaker.
Six nights of drinking
The speaker has experienced six nights of heavy drinking.
And tonight won't be the last
Expressing that tonight won't be the last night of drinking.
You won't leave me alone
The other person is persistent and not giving the speaker space.
Sometimes I just want to stay home
Expressing a desire to be alone and not go out sometimes.
In your shoes, I've outgrown
The speaker has surpassed or moved beyond the other person's experiences.
Why won't you leave me alone
Questioning why the other person is not allowing the speaker to be alone.
This moment is fleeing
The current moment is passing quickly.
Can't wait for the pass
Anticipating the end of a difficult phase or situation.
Such a beautiful fire
Describing a beautiful but destructive fire that clears away the old.
Clear out all the old at last
Emphasizing the need to let go of the past.
Ghosts are visiting
The speaker is haunted by memories or experiences from the past.
From the places we loved
These memories are from places that were once loved.
Getting lost in the atmosphere
Feeling lost in the negative emotions that were imposed on the speaker.
Of resentment you shoved
Reflecting on the resentment that has been forced upon the speaker.
You won't leave me alone
The other person continues to intrude and not give the speaker space.
Sometimes I just want to stay home
Expressing a desire to stay at home and avoid external pressures.
In your shoes, I've outgrown
The speaker has matured beyond the other person's perspective.
Why won't you leave me alone
Questioning why the other person persists in not leaving the speaker alone.
You won't leave me alone
Reiterating the other person's persistent presence in the speaker's life.
Sometimes I just want to stay home
Expressing a recurring desire for solitude and staying at home.
In your shoes, I've outgrown
Repeating the idea that the speaker has outgrown the other person's perspective.
Why won't you leave me alone
Questioning the reasons behind the other person's refusal to let the speaker be alone.
