Out in my Own

Prelude

Absent morning settles on glass

Old keys resting on ivory past

Hushed conversation with northern light

Fragile connections kept out of sight

Verse 1 – Male & Female

I woke before dawn, listening for peace

The world still humming, just barely awake

You found me lost in patterns that never cease

Tracing quiet hopes with every heartache

You sat beside me, matching breath to sound

Two voices searching for a place to land

The music we made, where lost things are found

Holding the moment like it’s slipping through our hands

Chorus

I see the world from a window outside

Counting the lines where my footprints hide

You talk about belonging, but I never tried

Carved out a corner where silence abides

Post-Chorus

Oh, I’ve grown in the cold

Oh, out on my own

Verse 2 – Female

You watch the laughter tumble in waves

I drift in shadows, quietly brave

Not built for circles, but edges and rain

Still holding wild hope I can’t explain

Pre-Chorus – Male & Female

Show me the cracks where light can seep in

Teach me the strength of not fitting in

Chorus

I see the world from a window outside

Counting the lines where my footprints hide

You talk about belonging, but I never tried

Carved out a corner where silence abides

Post-Chorus

Oh, I’ve grown in the cold

Oh, out on my own

Verse 3 – Male & Female

Still walking alleys the others pass by

Found little wonders beneath heavy sky

We carry stories nobody reads

Turning our misfits into quiet seeds

Chorus

I see the world from a window outside

Counting the lines where my footprints hide

You talk about belonging, but I never tried

Carved out a corner where silence abides

Post-Chorus

Oh, I’ve grown in the cold

Oh, out on my own

Bridge – Male & Female

We gather our wishes along quiet shores

Trace secret rivers through silent corridors

If home is a feeling that flickers and fades

We find one another in twilight’s cascade

And even if wandering never departs

We shelter the warmth we keep kindled in hearts

Guitar Solo

Chorus

I see the world from a window outside

Counting the lines where my footprints hide

You talk about belonging, but I never tried

Carved out a corner where silence abides

Post-Chorus

Oh, I’ve grown in the cold

Oh, out on my own
