Alone Again
.58 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's who we are
It's where we're going
And it's where we've been

In a little while from now
If I'm not feeling any less sour
I promise myself to treat myself
And visit a nearby tower

And climbing to the top I will throw myself off
In an effort to make it clear to who
What its like when your love shatters
Standing in the lurch in a church

Where people saying: "My God, that's tough
she's stood him up"
No point in us remaining
We might as well go home

As I did on my own
Alone again, naturally

To think that only yesterday
I was cheerful, bright and oh so gay
Looking forward to well wouldn't do
The role I was about to play

But as if to knock me down
My reality came around
And without so much, as a mere touch
Put me into little pieces

Leaving me to doubt
All about God and His mercy
Or if He really does exist
Why did He desert me in my hour of need

I truly am indeed
Alone again, naturally

It seems to me that there are more hearts
broken in the world that can't be mended
Left unattended
What do we do? Do we even care?

It's who we are
It's where we're going
And it's where we've been

Now looking back over the years
And whatever else has occurred
I remember I cried when my father died
Never wishing to hide the tears

And at sixty-five years old
My mother, God rest her soul,
Couldn't understand why the only man
She had ever loved had been taken

Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken
Despite encouragement from me
No words were ever spoken
And when she passed away

I cried and cried all day
Alone again, naturally
Alone again, naturally

It's who we are




It's where we're going
And it's where we've been

Line by Line Meaning

It's who we are
Our identity shapes everything we do


It's where we're going
Our future path is defined by the decisions we make


And it's where we've been
Our past experiences affect our present and future


In a little while from now
The future is unknown, but we can anticipate what may come


If I'm not feeling any less sour
If I'm not feeling any better


I promise myself to treat myself
I vow to do something kind for myself


And visit a nearby tower
I plan to visit a symbolic place to gather my thoughts


And climbing to the top I will throw myself off
I am tempted to end my own life


In an effort to make it clear to who
In an effort to communicate the pain I am feeling


What its like when your love shatters
To show what heartbreak truly feels like


Standing in the lurch in a church
Being abandoned and alone in a place of worship


Where people saying: "My God, that's tough she's stood him up"
Others are judging me for being left heartbroken


No point in us remaining
There is no reason for us to stay any longer


We might as well go home
We should leave and not prolong the inevitable


As I did on my own
As I faced this alone


Alone again, naturally
I am alone once more


To think that only yesterday
Reflecting on how things can change so quickly


I was cheerful, bright and oh so gay
I was happy and carefree


Looking forward to well wouldn't do
Anticipating things that did not come to fruition


The role I was about to play
The part in life I was expecting to take on


But as if to knock me down
Something happened to make me feel hurt and defeated


My reality came around
My dreams were shattered and I had to face the truth


And without so much, as a mere touch
Without warning or a gentle explanation


Put me into little pieces
Destroyed me emotionally


Leaving me to doubt
Causing me to question everything


All about God and His mercy
Feeling abandoned by a higher power


Or if He really does exist
Doubting the presence of God


Why did He desert me in my hour of need
Feeling let down by God


I truly am indeed
I really am


Alone again, naturally
Feeling isolated and alone


It seems to me that there are more hearts
I've noticed that many people have broken hearts


Broken in the world that can't be mended
There are many broken hearts that cannot be fixed


Left unattended
Left without care or support


What do we do? Do we even care?
Are we willing to take action to help those with broken hearts?


Now looking back over the years
Reflecting on my life so far


And whatever else has occurred
And all that has happened in my life


I remember I cried when my father died
Recalling a painful memory of losing my father


Never wishing to hide the tears
Not trying to keep my emotions hidden


And at sixty-five years old
When my mother was an elderly woman


My mother, God rest her soul
My mother, who has passed away


Couldn't understand why the only man
Was struggling to cope with losing the love of her life


She had ever loved had been taken
Her beloved partner had passed away


Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken
Leaving her to pick up the pieces of her broken heart


Despite encouragement from me
Despite my efforts to console her


No words were ever spoken
She could not bring herself to talk about it


And when she passed away
When she eventually died


I cried and cried all day
I was overcome with grief


Alone again, naturally
Once again feeling isolated and alone


Alone again, naturally
Feeling isolated and alone


It's who we are
Our identity shapes everything we do


It's where we're going
Our future path is defined by the decisions we make


And it's where we've been
Our past experiences affect our present and future

*****
there is a Vz 58 with a mars action trigger which is pretty cool. It is sort of semi-auto but still compliant. You need to pull the trigger twice for each shot. After each shot the action locks open, then pull the trigger it locks closed, pull it again and you fire.

ppl have straight pull Ar15s, but tbh they are completely pointless and overpriced compared to other bolt actions.



There are less rules on suppressors and stuff too. And most restrictions on handguns only applies to centrefire, so you can get BP revolvers (idk about BP pistols though).

(all with an FAC ofc)

We're so sorry you accidentally clicked out of your Cartoon Channel; hopefully, you found your way back there and will not make the same mistake again. :-)

@mattynek2

@@mattynek2 ok

@hickok45

@BHarris25, Yep, about all I use for my AK are the polymer Circle 10 Bulgarian mags. They are superb! The Tapco mags worked great in my WASR I had, but they are just a little tight in my Arsenal.

@kazmerdaniel6600

@maxcolt4124

Kázmér Daniel we love it in this country too! Along with basically every other gun design as well but this one is catching up in popularity.

@NCrdwlf

Kázmér Daniel it's a fantastic rifle. It sounds dumb, but one of my favorite features is the fact it takes stripper clips.
