On My Own Lyrics

I guess I must've lost a part of me

That's why I see the world so differently

Never had no one there to care for me

I did it on my own

I tried to drown it in the alcohol

Even though I know it don't help at all

I made myself my biggest enemy

I did it on my own

I've been scared that I'm not ready

It's been way too much

I've been moving slow and steady

I'm not giving up

I'd tell the younger me, don't worry

It takes a while but you'll be happy

I know you might not see it clearly

But you'll do it on your own

Made it so far and then I let it go

I guess I'm just too damn emotional

Look in the mirror and I never know

How I do this on my own

I told my momma that I don't know how

I gave it everything, then let her down

She said "my darling let me tell you now"

Don't you do it on your own

I've been scared that I'm not ready

It's been way too much

I've been moving slow and steady

I'm not giving up

I'd tell the younger me, don't worry

I swear that one day you'll be happy

I know you might not see it clearly

But you'll do it on your own

I know it's different when you feel it

Stuck underwater when you're screaming

You'd turn to anything for healing

You'll do it on your own

I'm learning how to be a better me

Sometimes I don't get it so perfectly

And if you feel that you're the same as me

Don't you do it on your own
