On My Own Lyrics

It's like being under water

A slight pressure on your chest

Everything around you blurs

Running out of air

I'm treading all this water

Getting weaker, growing tired

Now I'm drifting through a darker blue

Sinking deeper in the fading light

You can try to understand what it feels like

But I'm out here going through it on my own

And I'm feeling all these things at the same time

Even though you're right here, I'm still alone

Ooh I'm on my own

I've gotta get through this on my own

Like being locked into a dark room

No door leading outside

A small window with the perfect view

And there's nothing that I haven't tried

To be like one of them

To be less like me

To fake the smile

To fake happy

But of all the things I'd rather be I'll still choose me

You can try to understand what it feels like

But I'm out here going through it on my own

And I'm feeling all these things at the same time

Even though you're right here, I'm still alone

You can try to understand what it feels like

When I'm going through it you can't come along

And I'm feeling all these things at the same time

Even though you're right here, I'm still alone

Ooh I'm on my own

I've gotta get through this on my own
