Borrowed

(album: Hiraeth - 2023)

I attach myself to things I can't control
I can't control, mmm
I wonder then why my emotions overload
They overload, mmm

I realise I'm looking everywhere outside for me
Inside I'm screaming 'I am here'
And suddenly I wake up from the nightmare
I am safe now, I am not breathing in fear

Holding on is all I've ever known
So I have lived my life in sorrow
So if it comes just for it to go
It was never mine, it was borrowed

I found a safety in someone who will return
It's hard to learn, mmm
Into the dust, into the urn
I will return, I will return, mmm

I realise I'm looking everywhere outside for me
Inside I'm screaming 'I am here'

Holding on is all I've ever known
So I have lived my life in sorrow
So if it comes just for it to go
It was never mine, it was borrowed
Holding on is all I've ever known
So I have lived my life in sorrow
So if it comes just for it to go
It was never mine, it was borrowed

So hands off
Hold it lightly
It's not yours and it's not mine
It's true love, it's true love
Hands off
Hold it lightly
It's not yours and it's not mine
It's true love
