lyrics

On Your Own
© 2011 Treva Blomquist

You were an island I stumbled upon
You were a fortress I tried to disarm
But you’re better on your own

You sing a sad song nobody knows
You say you’re sorry but it doesn’t show
You’re better on your own

On your own, without me pulling you down
On your own, without me hanging around

I was a vessel in need of a guide
You came along for the ride
But I was better on my own
Now I have no more tears inside
and no more fear to hide I'm better on my own

On my own, without you pulling me down
On my own, without you hanging around

I wash my hands, of any guilt
Because you will live, in the house you built

Go on, do what you should do
I wish you well, I’ll pray for you
Out there on your own
