"On My Own" lyrics

"On My Own"

Woke up with a heavy heart
Cradled it like it was a baby
Watered all the plants and spent the afternoon
Watching them inflate

What can I say and what can I do?
Passing time can be so cruel

On my own, on my own
On my own again
In my mind

Carrying the burden with a safety box
Buried in the bank
Children's souvenirs
Laughter into tears and all the sadness

I should be glad, or should I feel free?
From all the distant memories

On my own, on my own
On my own again
In my mind
On my own, on my own
On my own again
In my mind

Brothers in a brawl
Pinned up to the walls
It's awfully quiet
Without the chatter in the halls

Guess I'll go it all alone
Towing all the trouble like a task
Towing like a task
Color in the darkness
Color in the darkness
Top it with a smile like mask
Top it like mask, oh

On my own, on my own
On my own, on my own
On my own again
In my mind
On my own, on my own
On my own again
In my mind

Guess I'll go it all alone
I'll go it on my own
And for a while
I'll know what is and isn't mine
On my own
On my own again
In my mind

On my own, on my own
On my own again
In my mind
On my own, on my own
On my own again
On my own again
In my mind
On my own, on my own
On my own, on my own
On my own again
On my own again
In my mind
On my own

Two feet
I stumble, weight of it
Dance in the street
I knew it was you, I knew
