I'm Not Alone
Kate Hall Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm not the only one who knows
You gotta crash and burn to live and learn
With arms open wide, eyes closed
Maybe I fall too fast, maybe I love too much
Maybe I give my heart away, but maybe I shouldn't have
And maybe I try too hard, and maybe I go too far
And maybe I'm heading for the moon, catch a ride on a shooting star
I'm not alone
I'm not the only one who knows
You gotta crash and burn to live and learn
With arms open wide, eyes closed
I'm not alone, I'm not alone
You gotta crash and burn to live and learn
With arms open wide, eyes closed
I know I'm not innocent, I know I'm not too bad
I wanna look back and be able to say I'd given all I had
I'm gonna make my mistakes, but it's perfectly OK
I'm not alone
I'm not the only one who knows
You gotta crash and burn to live and learn
With arms open wide, eyes closed
I'm not alone, I'm not alone
You gotta crash and burn to live and learn
With arms open wide, eyes closed
Gonna live my life with my arms open wide
Take a leap of faith as I shut my eyes
I'm not alone, alone
No I'm not alone, alone
I'm not alone
I'm not the only one who knows
You gotta crash and burn to live and learn
With arms open wide, eyes closed
I'm not alone, I'm not alone
You gotta crash and burn to live and learn
With arms open wide, eyes closed
I'm not alone

The repetition of "I'm not alone" throughout the song suggests that the singer may have felt isolated or lonely in the past, but they have come to realize that they are not the only one who has gone through these experiences.
The lyrics also suggest that the singer is willing to take risks and embrace new experiences, even if it means falling or failing along the way. The line "Gonna live my life with my arms open wide, take a leap of faith as I shut my eyes" suggests that the singer is ready to face any challenges that come their way and is not afraid to step outside their comfort zone. The repeated refrain of "With arms open wide, eyes closed" reinforces this idea of embracing the unknown and accepting whatever comes their way.
Overall, "I'm Not Alone" is an uplifting and inspiring song that encourages listeners to embrace their mistakes and keep moving forward. It reminds us that no matter what challenges we may face, we are not alone in our experiences and that we can always find strength within ourselves to keep going.
