about

When you see all the madness around you and think you are going to explode! A personal song about personal struggles, but also one about how you are not on your own in how you think and feel.

lyrics

Looking at the newspaper, again you feel despair
You question if this mental world can ever be repaired
Another unjust law upheld, another species dies
Wondering how to function, don’t others empathise?
Feeling like an alien, lost in a faceless crowd
Every breath is an effort, but others seem so proud
Can’t understand the world, does anybody care?
So few speak up or act, whilst most others just stare?
NOT ON YOUR OWN. NOT ON YOUR OWN. YOU’RE NOT ON YOUR OWN (X2)
A friend says to ban dog meat, whilst eating bacon baps
Raising for child charities; kids made their clothes and bags!
Others mock your life choices, saying that you’re weird
You try to fit in anyway, holding back your tears
You’ve never eaten at Nando’s, or watched the X-factor
Yet somehow you’re a “freak”, they ask why it matters
What do you eat? How do you live? Do you have fun?
You try to think where to begin, but you just want to run
NOT ON YOUR OWN. NOT ON YOUR OWN. YOU’RE NOT ON YOUR OWN (X4)
You wake up some mornings – fighting back those images
The ones that changed your soul – your insides feel like a black hole
Changed forever more – can’t understand how you lived before
Or when others will see – the world is not what it’s meant to be
What is this place? – Why does that meal still have a face?
Words fall on your ears – but the meaning seems to disappear
Is it really important? – You cannot see the significance
It’s hard to walk the line – but still you say that you‘re “just fine”
NOT ON YOUR OWN. NOT ON YOUR OWN. YOU’RE NOT ON YOUR OWN (X6)
